I don't know if this is fine, or is something wrong with his shell? Is this normal? If not, what's wrong with him? ImageUploadedByTortForum1395848819.077560.jpg Ots the white veiny looking area.

We've talked about the little white squiggly lines going through the tortoise's carapace a lot here on the Forum. No one knows exactly why this happens, but its quite normal.

Thank you! I was quite worried about him. So thanks for the reassurance! :D

It's usually associated with new growth. I wouldn't worry about it
