Pet's info: Reptile | Lizard | Male | 2 years and 3 months old
Hello, my bearded dragon has a glossy eye for the past few weeks. It had been very watery but today was by far the worst. He could bearly open his eye when he first woke up and it had a crust like skin around it. He also just pooped and there was blood in it. His name is Draco and he is about 2.5 years old.

By your description, Draco may have an eye injury or infection. This would need to be confirmed by your veterinarian after an exam. Submit a stool sample to diagnose intestinal parasites or bacterial overgrowth. Confirm proper temps, since low temps can affect digestion in reptiles.
