my boyfriend and I have two baby red foot tortoises. We got them a little over a month ago and at the time they were the same size. Now one has grown significantly and the other has not and its shell has been getting soft, almost sponge like. I know baby tortoises shells are suppose to be soft until they're around 6 or so months. Our babies are around 4-ish months old. When we bought them both, the shells were fine and within 48 hours we bag an noticing the dark, softer she'll and it's been getting worse since. Any ideas of what's up with our little guy? Should we be worrying? Thanks!
