Hey! I'm new to all this Tort raising. I got a sulcata tortoise named fish about 2 months ago and she is doing good for the most part. She's active when she isn't in her enclosure and can run around just fine. I have a dish in her enclosure that she gets in and out of every day and i take her outside where I am growing grasses and clover for her. I was reading about how to prevent shell pyramiding and other issues when I decided to check out my babe for any of the signs. I found that her plastron has what looks like grooves in it or like its been folded. I knew she had that going on when i bought her from the pet store, but didn't know it was potentially an issue until I read more into it. I might be paranoid but I just wanted a second opinion from people who are more experienced than myself.
