Hi,
I have a male Leopard Tortoise (approx 22kg or so). Very suddenly his shell has started cracking and one of the panels has completely come off. He has not been attacked by anything.
Here's some photos to show what is happening.
The pieces of the shell are cracking where they join, several of them are starting to come away. As you can see in the photos, the shell underneath is white, it is hard.
What is happening and do I need to do anything? Any help greatly appreciated.
