When I got Olive I noticed this little dent\scratch in her front right scute. Could it have been an accident during hatching or even before, like in-egg?

She also has a small lighter patch on her chin, as if she's missing a scale. Same questions as before.

I don't know that she's a girl, but calling her that out of hope. I have four boys already, so hopefully I got lucky this time!

It's hard to say, but it's really nothing for you to worry about.

Saying for certain is honestly not possible. I wouldnt be concerned though. As (she) ;) grows any imperfection become much less noticable
