Hi guys im back.
My tortoise has been doing good so far. She does not like raddichio.

recently ive been noticing growth at the back of her shell like the top clear layer is growing off the more opaque layer of her shell. I tried to get pictures but they dont show how weird the layers are. Im wondering whats happening and if its bad. If you look at the back, at the edge of her shell, you can see like some of it is kinda transparent. Thanks all!!!
