Hello, I have noticed these white markings in between his shell spots and am wondering if it's anything I should be alarmed about. Has grown with him and I have noticed more of them. He's 2 years old. Have never had any health issues with him. Thanks!

Hello and welcome! Looks like marble patterning to me on the photos🙂beautiful red foot🥰

Don’t suppose you’d mind sharing some info on how you’re keeping them? It’s so good to know with new members, a photo of your full set up would be great!😊

What are your temperatures like?

Your humidity levels?

What kind of lighting/heating are you using?

What kind of indoor uv?

Is that orchid bark substrate?

How’s their diet been with you? I have a great list of stuff we personally feed ours if you’d like some ideas for variety! I’m always on the look out for additions, so feel free to share yours😁

Do you give him a scrubbing when you soak him? Is it possible that it's hard water staining?
