Hi, I'm a proud mommy of two Russians. They are both around 3yrs old- 1 boy & 1 girl which I keep together, so if it is shell rot, should I separate them because it's contagious? He's got a round 2mm pit in the middle of his plates. Yesterday I picked off a flakey part off of the plate just to the right of the affected area. I've cleaned it with betadine, but its continuing to get larger/deeper. He's also not eating as well as he used to. The substrate was a coconut shell fiber that does hold humidity I'm thinking is too high for them, around 50%? Also on a side note, he is VERY sexually excited- every time I try to clean it (the hurt spot) he becomes aroused! Is that normal? He is Not interested in trying anything with my girl eirher! Thank you in advance for your help!
