So let me first introduce myself, I am Eric and I have 2 ornate box turtles and 2 eastern box turtles. The 2 eastern box turtles are hatchlings that I received yesterday. One of them has a piece of its carapace peeling off it seems. It almost looks like plastic wrap that was just stuck to it. In the first two photos it shows it and the other photos are just cute ones that I thought i would share. Is this something I should be worried about? Or is it normal for hatchlings?
