Hi guys, new to these forums. Just made an account to ask for some advice regarding some white patches on one of my baby red foots legs, He’s happy and healthy enough, but I’ve noticed when soaking him in a bath a couple months back that he has some peculiar white patches on one of his 23A13A0A-0ECE-49CC-AE05-CB4DCF76F5C8.jpeg5E44DF43-3128-4C65-B60D-4083894DF3BA.jpeglegs? Is this normal? My initial thought was perhaps early stages of shell rot but as they’re on his leg and his shell seems to be completely fine, I’m unsure if it’s something else? Pictures enclosed. If anyone has any ideas, it would be much appreciated.

Ah, that’s a relief. Guess I’ll start looking for some tricks to help him avoid that. Thanks a lot!
