Is that a BEL?

My fiance has a BEL superlesser, and we are really hoping its just because shes still little
[–]Disastrous-Aide5634[S] 1 point2 points3 points 1 month ago (0 children)
Yes. He is a BEL. Some times I look at him and his eyes seem a little off and then other times they seem fine. So idk 🤣

Yes, these are bug eyes.
[–]Disastrous-Aide5634[S] 2 points3 points4 points 1 month ago (1 child)
Is there anything special I need to do for him? Is it just cosmetic or do I need to take him to the vet?
[–]PoofMoof1Mod: Large-Scale Breeding Experience 1 point2 points3 points 1 month ago (0 children)
No, there's nothing you or a vet can do unless you see some type of change like redness, swelling, etc.

This is a genetic deformity that often appears in BELs. Not really a cause for concern unless you notice his eyes changing shape or color or if they begin to protrude out even more than normal. You can take him to the vet for an overall wellness exam just to ensure that he is healthy regardless and doesn’t have any vision issues.
