Does anyone know what might be causing this?

Have 2 redfoots. They were bought from the same place, but shipped about a week apart a little over a month ago. The first appears very healthy, active and eating hardly. This one has what appears to be small "injuries" around the edge of its shell. He eats, and moves around the habitat, but not to the same level of the other one. Any advice would be helpful.

Are they housed together? sounds like it could be bullying to me.

It's hard to tell, but there might be a little bit of shell rot on the edge of the shell. If so, it's easily treated and shouldn't affect his overall health.
