Hi everyone, I just noticed this week my sulcata baby tortoise who is maybe 8 to 10 months old (maybe older) has these weird squiggly lines on the bottom of his/her shell. They almost look the if they were worms but it doesn't move its just there. Has anyone seen this before? Is it a bad thing, am i doing something wrong? Sick? What can I do?
On the bottom are the pics, Thank you!20180709_133041.jpeg20180709_133037.jpeg20180709_133039.jpeg20180709_133025.jpeg

If you do a forum search for "white squiggly lines", you will find all sorts of discussion on this.

Here is the short version: We don't know what it is, but its normal and not harmful.
Mine has some on top of shell is that normal too?
