I have had my tortoise for ten years. Last year he got a skin infection. That was my fault. A child's plastic pool is great for soaking but after a few months he broke it and cut himself getting out. It was such a minimal cut, but he went to the vet and went on antibiotics, which he hated! The skin on the back of his front leg has become discolored, darker. I have been treating it with beteadine. And it hasn't gotten worse but it hasn't gotten better. His overall health is great. He is an outdoor tortoise. Do any of you with adult tortoises have skin discolorations? I've seen a lot of hatchlings posts of discoloration but not adults.
