I have a rescue tortoise who is in his late teens. He has lived with us for 8 years. Prior to coming to our home I was told he was fed chicken. We have corrected his diet, and after a rough first two years he has been in great health. His weight has remained the same and his bone density has improved.
The growth on his shell this year is odd. Anyone familiar? Know what it is? See attached picture. I drew red arrows at a few areas showing a ridge of growth.
