sunken eyes

Sammysale · 16-10-2013, 11:54 PM

Hi everyone,
I just wondered if my little Athena could be dehydrated only her eyes look a bit sunken and I have noticed her skin peeling. She has access to fresh water at all times and has 2 baths a week. She's very active demolishing her enclosure every day and is eating, urinating and pooing normally. Any ideas would be gratefully appreciated.

If she is active, eating, pooing, peeing and has access to water, than she isn't likely dehydrated.

Peeling skin is normal.
