Hi. Can the terra cotta plant saucer scratch my hatchling's plastron? He struggles a bit getting in and out and this is why I waited this long to put one back in his enclosure. He has a more shallow stone bowl for a water dish and to the best of my knowledge doesn't use it. Which is ok. He gets 20-30 minute soaks in the morning and sometimes a short soak in the evening if he's still up and around. But I put the saucer in this afternoon with some food in it and found him in it munching away. But then watched him get out and even though it's level with substrate, he did have to drag on his belly for a minute, on the lip of it. Thoughts? Thanks! Dover looks great and I don't want him hurt!!!! He's a good strong baby. I've had him a week now!!
