Hi there
thanks for any comments in advance.
I've always noticed that our Oogy's carapace isn't quite symmetrical, or as I would expect, in 1-2 places.... while it has never concerned us, I thought I should seek some opinions on whether there are any health issues relating to the visible development of the carapace.
Maybe useful to zoom in closer to see what i mean. Please excuse the colour tint on the photo.
If you look especially at the area bounded by a red rectangle, (and in fact, the area just below the rectangle towards the front, in the middle) you can see there are some quite irregular shapes there. Anything to worry about here? I don't see any signs of pyramiding, the carapace was like this when he arrived as a wee one.
I'm interested to know if the early assumption we made - that the carapace must have been knocked or damaged in infancy in some way - is likely correct?
Either way we love him just as he is.
thanks any thoughts.
