He's my first tortoise and is a few months over 1 year old. I went a bit too long letting him live in his hatchling terrarium that was too small (I've recently rehoused him into an awesome gigantic diy enclosure I'm really happy with) and since it's got colder and I couldn't take him out to explore in the yard, so he would stay all day in his tunnel/hide. I worried he's developed some shell rot due to spending all day sitting on the wet bark in his tunnel. I hadn't really looked at the bottom of his shell much over the past year, so I was a bit surprised to see these white spots that were a different texture from the rest of his plastron. They look like a bubble forming on the surface, but they are the same texture as his shell and don't appear to be weaping like a wound and don't smell. Due to how semetrical they are, though, I'm unsure if they are just natural shell formations like the center part of each scute that the shell grows out from. Please advise!
