| Sorry, no real ideas on what this could be. Although... it does look like dried food - is she feeding young? ... just a thought. | |

| Jen...what does her breath smell like? How are her poop? Does it have an odor? How does the inside of her mouth look?
I'm thinking she could have a sinus infection which is also affecting her eye. The infection may be from canker or bacteria. Personally, I would start her on baytril and metronidazole. | |

| Mouth clear, no odor. Poop has been fine. Some of the yellow on the cere looks like it came off so I think it's all from the eye. Or nostril maybe? It's not really as crusty as it looks in the picture. I just went to look and picked her up. She must weigh a pound and a half! What a big girl! | |

| I would put her on baytril, Jen. Do you have some? If not, I can pop some in the mail tomorrow. | |
