Hello All,
My reedfoot tortoise has a brown spot over her left eyelid. I've also noticed that part of her upper lid is crusted and she isn't fully opening her third eyelid. The other eye is completely normal, all of her lids are open, no crust or hardening at all. From what I can tell, the brown spot feels completely normal, but it cannot be rinsed away. It doesn't seem to hurt her at all (she let me touch it and wipe over it with a q-tip without any objection), but she is taking some time to open her eye. Any ideas as to what this can be?
Best,
Devonae
