It might look a little dry. Do you soak the tortoise daily?I don't see what you're concerned about.
I wasn’t sure what to look for, but I was looking at the middle where there is a white part. I just thought the shell had started looking different, and I didn’t know if something was wrongI don't see what you're concerned about.
I soak about 3 times a week, but I could start soaking daily if that would help. Usually when I soak I scrub the top of her shell lightly with a wet toothbrushIt might look a little dry. Do you soak the tortoise daily?
Great, thanks!Upon closer inspection, I think I see a replaced section on the carapace. It looks like the second vertebral scute was damaged in the past and new keratin has replaced it. It looks perfectly fine and nothing to worry about.
