Hi everyone,
Just bathing Tommy and have noticed a small part of his shell on his underside has a pinky tinge to it.

Should I be worried?

Not sure if it's obvious on the pics, but it is the part under where his chin would be just to the side slightly.

Thank you in advanceImageUploadedByTortForum1395344325.532008.jpgImageUploadedByTortForum1395344349.513863.jpgImageUploadedByTortForum1395344360.347466.jpg

Neverland!
The pink between the scutes (the dark "plates") is usually new growth!
