Hello!
I just got a Hermann's Tortoise who is about a month old and have had him for about a week. I was giving him a soak this morning when I noticed that the back edge of his shell was sort of translucent and softer than the rest of his shell. I was reading some other posts on the forum here (which is great btw) and I just wanted to make sure that this isn't shell rot or anything.
Here are some images of him. I can post more if needed, thanks for taking a look!!!
