Hello there fellow humans!
I don't know whether this is normal, but my shell has some areas where the border is translucent; almost gelatin-like, and I don't know if this is normal. Does it mean I'm in bad health?
I eat greens every day. The only thing I don't eat are carrots (source of vitamin A) because I don't eat them (for whatever reason), tomatoes and other greens my human eats because I heard they're unhealthy for me.
I get bathed every few days, and my human tries to maintain the humidity of the table between 50% (when he's at work, he can't spray water in the tank so the humidity is lower) and 85%. I'd say the average humidity when he's at home is between 65% and 80%.
I'm a Hermann's tortoise born in 2016; I don't know my birthday, but I'm guessing I'm around a year old. Is the shell alright or am I suffering from some sort of issue my human isn't aware of?
Cheers,
Gandalf
