Ok, my little one Lily, has had problems with her eye off and on. Right now it is bloody and bleeding, not tons, but enough. See pics, and it doesnt look like...pho...whatever that brown stuff is they sneeze.
SInce I got her, she has had weird stuff goin on with her eye. Not really bad, she had alot of gunk in her chest and noisy when I first got her. I got her on Baytril and she has been doing better. Her eye off and on has had a brownish ring around it some days and some days it is clear as anything, it has been that way since I got her. The brown has never been blood, just discolored looking. Then again some days is as clear as a bell.
I get her out tonight and my room mate pointed out that her eye looked like pus and blood. I got a napkin and she stood still and let me blot it, she closed her eyes and actually sat still like it may of felt good to her or it itched. I will show a pic of what I got off her eye as well. It looks like blood. Her eye looks scabed around it. I have an older girl in there with her, they bicker, but not fight, they pull each others hair etc alot, and squeel, but never fight to the point where this could be from a fight. It looks like maybe it itches alot and she has scratched it to the point where it bled. It has a few small scratches to it.
The pics does not show to clearly, but maybe gives an idea. I will call my vet tomorrow, but she is slowly learning about rats, mostly as I come here first and take the "adivce" to her and she either agrees or does not agree or finds out before making a decision. So I wanted to kind of get some info first if I can. Anyone knwo what this could be?
Maybe she is alergic to the bedding as well. I use care fresh ultra. I was using the white, and she sneezed alot, switched to color and she doesnt sneeze with it at all.
I dont know, I am worried about her eye tho. Thanks all
