I'm not seeing anything either. Could you describe what you think may be an issue?

I noticed it last night, but it was soo fine I could barely notice it even with my glasses. But I got home from work today, gave her a bath, and i noticed it looks darker. She doesnt seem to be bothered/notices it. it looks like a scale that is dried/darkened. should I be concerned? Should I take her to the vet? Should I wait and see?


I had to step out of my house to go to my girlfriends I will be back to check on her soon and take another pict

The only thing I'm worried about in that first picture is a tropical tortoise on the floor in winter.

I wouldn't be overly concerned about the spot on the beak. Monitor it of course, but I don't suspect any harm

My house is kept at 74 degrees wen I put her on the floor and never longer than half an hour-45 minutes at a time. But she does need her exersize. Unless u expect her to float in the air the exersize she gets is walking around the house
