Now that my Greta has been identified as a Russian, I have a question.... There is a spot on her shell that seems to have been damaged or is peeling? Is that serious and is there something I can do to fix/ prevent more damage?

Hi Niki:

No, nothing to worry about. Most of the wild caught Russian tortoises have scrapes and scratches on their shells.
