: : I have a three inch sulcata and he keeps getting this white-gray like film over his eyes. I heard they might get stuff on their eyes if malnutritioned. But this little beast is far from malnutritioned. I remove the film with a moist qtip....has anybody had this problem..what is it???

: It can also be from not enough humidity, or not enough vitamin A. Make sure you are giving some sort of supplement weekly. What are you feeding your tortoise, how much, and how often? Also describe its enclosure or where you keep it if outdoors.

I built a wooden box 4ft by 2ft. We are feeding him dark greens like dandillion greens. We give him a calcuim with prophasate(however it is spelt). I thought it might be the bedding. We are using cleanfresh. Ha sthis happened to you?
