White/pale tongue

[Shellbsternsquirtle760]

Hello and good afternoon, I'm reaching out in hopes of some guidance with my tortoise Shellby. I've noticed that recently her tongue is really pale, almost white. She's been eating just fine, moves with no problem, and soaks normally. Any idea what could be the cause? I've been feeding her a new calcium powder sprinkled onto her greens, but my other tortoise seems to be looking fine. I'm stumped, thanks for reading!

Hello. Do you have a picture? it might be easier to see
Has it always been white, or did it change color?

It's changed color, it's usually pink/red but she looks really pale lately.

Very often… pale gums means a low blood count. It could be that her tongue would be affected. Have you seen any signs of bleeding? Maybe take a good look at her poop.
