I have neverasked a question here but I have used it since before I owned my little tort and all the info has helped immensely. i'll appreciate anyone who can help inform me of what may be happening.
For the past few days my baby hermanns(TB) has been somewhat tired. she's barely eaten except for today and she has slept more than usual. this morning i found a very small spot of blood on her shell and gave her a warm soak to see what it could have been from. the spot didn't look cracked or injured but more like it just bleed in between her scutes. she doesn't look to have any other problems with her on the outside.
im freaking out over what it could possibly be, septicemia, new growth, some sort of shell problem, but i do not know if i should make an appointment unless i am sure she needs it. her are some pictures of this morning before and after one after i cleaned her up and she started to eat
