Scutes too close?

One of my torotises has two scutes on the top of its carapace that are really close together and I’m worried it’s a problem…is it?

Some people think that's cute...it is not a worry....it's cosmetic

It could even be an advantage, making it much easier if your tortoise managed to get out, for example, and wandered off - you would be able to identify him much more easily. Keep a photo of his shell in case you need it for identification in the future.
Obviously I hope you will never need it !
