5 Month panther eye problem! Please help :/

[Rusko]

So i was misting my panthers cage when he got this bulge in his eye on one side. He was like blinking and moving it in his eye and started rubbing it on a stick. At most it swelled up to twice the size of his other eye. After a few minutes it went away and he seems to be back to normal now.

Does anybody have any idea about what this mught be?? :/

I had a similar reaction when i first saw it. Your Cham is just cleaning his eye turrets, no need to worry. If the eye stayed swollen for more then a couple of minutes then it would be cause for concern.

My ambanjas are about 5 months old and one of them does that when I mist him as well. He is perfectly healthy, he's just cleaning out his eye.
That being said, I would keep a watch to make sure that's what yours is doing. They can get eye infections.
