I have a question about something I noticed on one of my babies today. He has an indent on the right side of plastron about thumb sized. This side appears to be slightly more soft than the other. I noticed it after their soak today. He appears to be acting normal, he pooped in the soak and immediately went to dinner. He's only about 12-14 weeks and I know their shells are pliable for the first year or so, but this just seems off. I tried to get pics, let's see if this helps.
The next two are the indented side
This is the other, normal side
No other changes. Temps are great (basking 100f, cool end 83-85, humid hide 85-90, general enclosure around 95-98) and humidity in enclosure never drops below 70 and is typically at 85 or higher. Humid hide at 95+. Diet is varied, dandelion, kale, collards, spring mix, Timothy grass plus several things planted that they graze on. They are soaked at LEAST daily for 30 minutes, sometimes twice daily for 30 minutes. I add the TNT tort supplement from Carolina pet supply 2-3 times a week. Thanks for any comments or suggestions.
