    Re: My bp's eye looks dented.

    It is from LOW humidity.

    A bump up in that department will help you.

    My humidity gauge says its 65% or so. I have a digital one and it says its always 50% or more. The dial one says 60-70.

    You could throw the analog gauge away and probably get a better reading. Stick with what the Digital says.

    Re: My bp's eye looks dented.

    Sounds like a retained eye cap, caused by low humidity. Is her water bowl deep enough for her to submerge?

    put one of the water bowls over the UTH and that should raise the humidity even more. what is your setup like?
