    • @Reptiliatus
      @Reptiliatus  Před 3 měsíci +1

      Tokays are actually quite social! It's best to just keep a male/female pair together but once they start reproducing they thrive in little families. They actually protect their young and the mother sometimes even helps a hatchling leave the egg! They won't cannibalize each other either!

    Disclaimer: I am not a reptile keeper and my thoughts should not be acted upon.
    The eyes did look like they had some sort of buildup at the edges. It looks like it’s the part of the eye furthest for the tongue to reach? Maybe the tongue can’t quite reach, making it easier for eye caps to stick? I wonder if it would come away with a q-tip (not dry, not dripping, but definitely wet with disinfectant or at least dechlorinated water… are there eye drops for reptiles/geckos?). I assume a dry q-tip could scratch the eye, since my cat finds them irritating and I assume his ears are less sensitive than a gecko eye. 😅 Increasing moisture at that exact spot with a dropper makes more sense. If you talk to the vet, I’d be interested if there’s a way to “help”.
