hi all! i got my baby russian around a month or so ago now and all has been well except im worried about his/her eyes. for the first few days i had him/her in coco coir mixed with calci sand (as i saw was recommended) but soon changed it after seeing how messy it was and got nervous about it getting in his/her eyes. since the day i got him/her he/she has rubbed his/her eyes a lot and that is the main worry i had with the original substrate (even though he/she was rubbing his/her eyes when in the original container he/she came in). now i have reptibark in his/her enclosure as recommended by some people on here and he/she still occasionally will rub his/her eyes and they look like this. i give him/her regular soaks (everyday for up to 30 minutes) and feed him/her everyday with differing greens and occasional calcium powder. does this look normal or is something wrong ??
