Posted: Sun Aug 27, 2017 7:40 pm What's going on with my turtles shell??
I got two baby RES about 3 months ago. I say baby because I'm not sure how old they are and they are fairly small. I have a basking area with a heat bulb and uvb bulb. A water heater and a good filtration system. I clean their tank often. Both turtles eat regularly and are very active. They bask and play and swim all the time.. however one of my turtles has something different or "off" about his shell. I am a new turtle owner and have done some research about this but I'm still not sure.. His shell is a lighter color then my other turtle and but it is not soft and doesn't smell either.. I'm very concerned about the little guy and I hope he is just shedding his scutes but I want to be sure and not letting him go unattended if something else is wrong.. here is a picture. Please help
