Is there a way to tell if a turtle is calcium deficient? I'm inquiring because recently I've noticed my female RES's nails seem to be a little 'worn down', and she doesn't really have hard rocks to climb up, right now while they are waiting to move into the stock tank, she's in a little kiddie pool.
She always has a cuttlebone piece, which is usually there for a month and then gone
but I know she's getting calcium. She sheds great, she recently she finished another big shed, and her beak looks fine, so is it just a 'nail thing'?
EDIT-She had to be upside down because (fortunately) she really dislikes being picked up, and 'normal way' she was trying to air swim, and I couldn't get a shot
What's it look like to you?
