My Russian tortoise Boris is starting to shed some of his skin (the first time he has done this). His new skin is a lot darker and a lot less green. Just wondering if this is normal.
PS, the pictures of Boris are from yesterday, since then, I have setup his new Vivarium style enclosure to give him high and adequate humidity (I’m aware of his pyramiding issues he was started out incorrectly)
