    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

uno oho

i was worried about that, and i did bump it up for awhile. its been like that for quite awhile, actually looks like its gotten a lttle more cloudy, and looking at it, its not like dimple or anything...dunno, i'll continue to keep her humidity up though. it'd be a relief if thats all it is, i'm just not so sure thats it.
 
Take a wet qtip and sofly run it across the eye, has she shed since she's had it? Is it rough to the touch?
 
A tiny dab of triple antibiotic will moisten it up and combat any kind of infection if it is a scratch. Neosporin WITHOUT pain reliever or store brand WITHOUT pain reliever. Apply a tiny dab daily. It will probably shed out. BUT I am NOT a vet, so my advice is not to be taken as gospel. If it gets worse, swells up etc... a trip to the vet is definitely in order.

she hasn't shed, and yes its kinda ruogh, man i gotta say she's takin all this in stride. lettin me hold her head in plce and shine a light in her eye while prodding her(softly) on her eye with a wet qtip lol, i thought for sure i was gonna get a kiss, but nothin yet.
i lightly rolled the qtip across it and i can feel a roughness. also as you look sort of down at a top view of the lens i can see a roughness, my damn camera won't focus that closly though.
You think it might shed out?
 
Its just a scratch(im rather sure) and will shed out. Is she in a rubbermaid bin or one of those melamine cages in the background?
 
Hmm, keep an eye on it, if she doesn't shed it out then id think a vet trip is in order, but it seems like just a scratch
 
had a very similar problem with a normal male I have. I increased humidity a bit and it shed out completly in about 3 sheds.
