i have a 2+ month old new leopard tort. the top of his shell is good and solid. his plastron is not mushy or extremely soft, but i noticed it's not solid like the top, it's more pliable. but, i didn't know ... is that normal for a baby?
is baby plastron supposed to be pliable?

It takes a bit for the plastron to harden up. If the top of the shell is good and hard, then the tortoise is most likely healthy.
thanks, lancecham. he looks healthy otherwise. i appreciate it.
