camimom New Member Aug 1, 2014 #3 a good long warm shower can help him dislodge anything in his eye. when my chams have that issue, i do like a 20 minute shower time with them. they usually spend the time bulging the eye in and out to clean it. also, sometimes they will rub their eye on stuff to remove whatever is in it.

Take a potted plant, pothos, scheffelar, etc. and stick it in your shower on the floor. aim the shower head towards the wall, and turn the water to lukewarm, then let the water bounce off the wall and mist onto the plant. then place your cham on the plant, and he can sit in the mist from the shower, without being directly hit. do not leave him, they can fall off, esp if its their first shower, and it can make them freak out, and they could drown.
