she has bright orange lumps on her left upper eye lid they appeared yesterday and I bathed it but they won't wipe off (thought it was pollen)
They are still there today, see photographs of last night. Its not very clear but they are groups of small lumps like eggs bright orange but will not come off and I dont want to pull them off incase it is swollen hair follicles or something???? Her actual eye lids are dark blue/grey
She is absolutely fine, girl bits n all and very happy binkying and flopping
They are definately small bright orange lumps I thought they were eggs but they won't come off
Looked on the net but it's all very different answers
One was high colesterol another
Was a reaction to something and a further one was too much of vitamin b or c or too much citrus fruit (we don't feed her antthing but her musli her hay and some rabbit specific treats also she has munched on grass and weeds)
No one seems to know!!
Do you think it's worth taking her to the vet?
UPDATE
They are either eggs or harvest mites (thanks for the replies!) I pulled a few off but they are SO SMALL I cant see any legs?? I sqeeze them and they just squish with orange liquid, kind of like those little red spiders when you squish them.
Can you see harvest mites legs or just as small orange dots? they are TINY. What if she has them somewhere else on her body? :?
