    Shell rot?

    I don’t believe he was dropped. Of course he bangs his shell on the baseboards and hardwood floors when he roams the house, but there’s nothing I can think of that could’ve caused a puncture.

    Shell rot?

    I am sure this is a new sore. He’s never had anything like this before. When he gets his weekly soak, I always inspect him just to make sure he’s all good. Do you think there is something I am doing wrong that could’ve caused this? Thank you for your help!

    Hello!

    My name is Sioux. I live in Houston, Texas and have a very sweet Russian tortoise named Mr.T. I'm not sure how old he is, as I got him from someone that was giving him away for free in my grandmothers neighborhood. I do know that we wasn't given the proper care with his previous owners such as...
