Hey everyone! So a while ago I noticed an indentation on my redfoots Shell, I’ll posh pictures below as well, and I’ve been keeping a close eye on it and have noticed that as she grows it seems to be getting bigger, as in the indent isn’t growing with her shell. Her setup is she had a t5 5.0 uvb, she’s kept on mulch to help with humidity, her humidity is always in the 70% range with spikes into the 80-90% range throughout the day when the digger turns on, heat is 78 cool side and 82 warm side, her diet consist of mostly greens and I rotate in mazuri, fruits and veggies and she gets a little bit of protein one or two times a month, I did have some problems with humidity a while ago which is why you see some pyramiding but since I have gotten a digger for her enclosure the new growth seems to be much smoother. I was wondering if this is something I should be concerned about? And if anybody had any idea of what may have caused it?image.jpgimage.jpg
