Hi everybody 🙂 I work at a pet store, and we just got this tortoise in yesterday. I'm suspecting there was some improper husbandry in his past, but I am wondering if anyone knows what exactly is wrong. The top of his shell is kind of flat, his shell is discolored, and there also seems to be a little damage on one side.
Does he need a vet? Is this just cosmetic, or potentially a health issue? He doesn't seem to have any issue eating, drinking and pooping, so far. He is from a breeder who says he was born in January of this year, but I don't have any other information on his previous living situation.
Thank you in advance!
