Question on my 6 mon cherry head red foot shell
Hi I was wondering if his shell looked ok? I guess it would be his scutes lines to be more specifically. I noticed it’s starting to lighten up I can’t tell if it’s marbling or something possibly more serious. I took a photos one with glass and one without. thanks in advance.- Blake P

Pyramiding/shell health
I have a 9 year old 50ish pound sulcata with 20ish inch carpace. I reccently adopted him and I want to make sure his shell is healthy. There are some interesting "squigally" grooves and one scute is lower, while the others are larger/more raised up. I currently feed him grass, timothy hay...- Wskjensen
