bp eye problem
been keeping my bp in a tub with about a third of it with an open air wire mesh top (because i didnt put airholes in the side of that tub yet) and apperently my bp could put her head through this to try to get out and in the process she tore up the skin right above her eye her eyes seem to be fine however its just that little flap of skin over both eyes thats torn up.
i really dont think a vet visit would be necassary (it dosent seem serious AT ALL) but i would like to see what you guys think
i put her in a diff tub
should i put vasoline on it or something like that?
im gonna put up pictures

Re: bp eye problem
Apply some antibiotic ointment, without pain reliever, borrow a drill soldering iron, and do the tubs correctly.

Re: bp eye problem
I agree about the antibiotic ointment. Neosporin or Bacitracin without pain reliever usually works. Since the wounds are so close to the eyes, you might try dabbing it on with a Q-Tip so you don't get it on the eyes...
