I noticed a brown crusty spot on Leroy's head, but figured it was just dirt. However, after his soak it was still there. Any ideas as to what it may be?

The first pic is him without the brown spot:

Looks like 2 different tortoise heads lol...I wouldn't worry. They look like normal head scales to me.

Haha :) Leroy is very versatile. Before I posted on the forum I looked online. the reason ranged from fungal infection to a burn to mbd . . . So of course I got super paranoid.

It did look a little better after his soak. Maybe I'll give him extra soaks and see if it goes away or comes back.

Is there a such thing as fungal infections on scales?
