Is my bunny ok?

[uppon2]

Bruiser my Flem X NZ Buck is currently 11 weeks old and I'm not sure if it is a "third eyelid" but it is definitely another translucent shielding that is exposed and on some occasions covering 70% of his eye (Not quite covering the pupil)

He picked up the same mutation like his father, he has 1 brown eye and 1 blue eye. All of his siblings have blue eyes only. The brown eye is the eye with the problem so I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it?

I am very concerned about it as it seems to be getting worse as time goes on. He is not in any pain and does not seem to be bothered by it at this stage. He eats and drinks perfectly fine and his poo and wee seem to look normal.

What should I do?

Don't know much about this, but it would probably be a good idea to have a vet check him out. He may need meds, maybe even an antibiotic.

I am taking him in at the end of the week. I couldn't get him in to my trusted vet until then - If he starts to show signs of pain or discomfort I will take him to emergency.

Good luck at the vet. I hope your bun will be ok.

A vet trip is a good idea. Since he's a growing bunny, I wonder if perhaps the eyeball itself is too small for the socket or something similar which could explain why the problem is getting worse as he grows.

We don't have that kind of problem, but one of our rescues has bi-colored eyes. One is 1/3 blue and 2/3 brown and his other is 1/3 brown and 2/3 blue. Very strange to behold.
