Hello!
After a bath i noticed Penelope is looking pink on the underside of her shell. She is eating and behaving normally. The shell is hard and doesnt appear painful to her.
Does anyone have any ideas or advice?

Thanks!

It doesn't look bad to me. If the tortoise is eating and acting normally, I would just attribute it to an increased blood supply in preparation for new shell growth to take place.
