but as i was looking through the many different threads on here, i saw that someone had noticed their torts third eyelid was inflamed.
since i received my yearling leopard tort in August I've always thought of her eyes as...puffy maybe? i can always see the white eyelid in the corner of her eye.... i figured is was how she was. but after seeing someone saying that's a problem and someone else saying that was a symptom of a future uri. now I'm worried!!
she's never showed any signs of illness. it took her about a month to settle in but after that, she's been great. she has a healthy appetite, poops regularly, enjoys every other day soaks. the only thing i would ever question would be her eyes but even they aren't alarming to me.
i have a few pictures that i zoomed in on....in the morning i will try to get a few better ones. these ones basically show the white eyelid in the corner.
