I recently brought home my first bearded dragon about 3 weeks ago, i believe he was about 2 1/2 months.Lately I've been noticing him keeping one eye shut. It started shortly after I brought him home, and it's been happening more and more recently. It also seems like the eye is slightly swollen. I've been using a 125w "lucky herp" mercury vapor bulb on his basking spot paired with a repti sun 10.0 HO t5 bulb, and thought that possibly the mercury vapor bulb was irritating his eye so I switched to a 100 w exoterra intense basking bulb, without the added uvb. No difference yet though.
He is kept in a 40 gallon breeder temps about 107 on his basking side and about 78-84 on cool side.
His appetite has been fine, and I've been misting him daily as well as a soak once a week.
He diet is mostly crickets, dusted with calcium with D3 5× a week and a multi vitamin 2× a week
Not sure what's causing it, just want to make sure my little dude is okay. I'll attach some picture so you can see.
