I've begun to notice some toughness and dryness along the top of my Russian tort's shell. Could any more experienced owners take a look at my Russian's shell and tell me if I need to have anything checked out?
This is Ivan, I've had him for close to a year now, and I do my best to make sure he gets enough calcium and I give him baths about every three days, time permitting.
He's the first tortoise I've ever owned, so I don't know if there's anything wrong, but I thought it would be a good idea to ask the community. The rough spots on his shell give me concerns about shell rot but I don't really know what to look for.
Thanks!
