If anyone can answer one question i have one of his eyes seems to be a little bigger (more bulging) then the other. Oh by the the way i would guess he's only about 2-3 wks old.

Hi Terry1 -

Looks like we are about 40-45 minutes from each other. I have supplies and I am willing to share if you need them. I can also take a look at the baby and leave you know what I think might be going on. I have experience, but not as much as some of the others here on TSB.

Last Fall I had a little one that had a bigger eye on one side than the other. The bigger eye opened before the other one. Ends up, she was blind in the big eye, as it was all milky white. She grew up just fine and was released with her siblings. Just got done greeting her with her morning nut treats. She's doing just fine out there on her own. Her name is Sami.

Thank you JIT!

Also, since both threads are talking about the same issue, just to help avoid confusion and eliminate the need to double post...for anyone else that wishes to comment on the eye issue and see pics, they are located in the following thread.
