What's on my BP's eye?

My little girl had that once. And it was NOT shed. It just popped up one day. Its ittty bitty. Made sure the humidity was good. Maybe in the 55 to 60 percent range. And she had fresh water. Went away.

Also, the scale around the edge of the eye is separate from the eyecap, and can be retained if the eyecap isn't. You CAN very gently wipe with a wet washcloth to see if it comes off, but I wouldn't take it any further than that. It won't hurt anything and should come off the next shed (same with an eyecap).

I never said to use tape. I wouldn't do that either. Wet washcloth or a wash cloth with a little olive oil. Or leave it alone. Use your judgement; don't let us micromanage you and drive you insane.

Thanks for all the replies,

The reason that I don't think it's shed or an eye cap, is that I didn't notice it until about a week or two after he shed. I think I'm going to wait a few more days before I try anything myself.
