Worried About Shell

[13Jake]

Hey there!
My 2 year old seems to have scutes that are separating or is this the beginning of something else?. His brother's shell is fine.

Looks like the conditions you have it in might be too dry. Do you monitor the humidity levels?

Ahh, thanks for your reply!

The season has changed so perhaps it may be a bit dry so I put coconut oil on the shell and I will monitor it.

I though it could be the tortoise when they barge past each other so may have scraped it or something.

You see so many things on the internet and can't help but think of the worst thank you!
