Hello All,
It's been a while!
So I wanted to ask the group about tortoise shell growth. My Teo was born with a "dimple" in a scute on her backside of the shell. As she is maturing now, It looks like the growth is somewhat irregular (not completely straight and some slight bumping).It is not as clean as it used to be when she grew new growth rings and even though she has a smooth shell, there are some bumps that have developed. I was just wondering if this is something common when a tort has that dimpling on its shell. I will get pictures when I get home from work.
