    I need some help w/ one of my Chinese Water Dragons..
    Hey guys,

    My youngest Chinese Water Dragon Lil Wang lol.. sorry. anyhow.. has been weird the past few weeks.
    He has always had some troubles with his eyes (as do alot of baby CWD)
    You know the usual, infection... stuff like that.

    Well as of late, he keeps his eyes close.. CONSTANTLY! the only time that he opens them is when I put him in the shower for a nice rain soak. Or when I move him around alot and he gets annoyed and he'll open them for maybe 2 full seconds.. then they close right back. I dont really see him eat anymore.
    But obviously he IS eating, or he wouldnt be alive after this amount of time.

    Any suggestions as to what might be weird with him??
    My adult water dragon is perfectly fine... and he was to, both have the same basic CWD setup and everything.. but the young one.. in the past 3 weeks has been having those odd problems... Help??

    often times eye issues in lizards are a result of a nutritional deficiency--mainly a deficiency in vitamin a. i would advise a trip to the vet along with a fecal.

    Question: Is the eyes sort of watery or the nose? I had one do the hole 'I won't open my eyes' and it turned out to be a URI. I'd take the little guy to the vet immediately just to be sure.

    Honestly.
    Neither are watery at all.
    I did notice however the other day that he had his eyes open for a little bit.
    So he seems to be getting better with it.
    I just dont know what has caused it in the first place.
