It looks like it could be remnants of broken eggs. You might want to create a nesting box for your turtle in case she has more to lay. www.tortoisetrust.org/articles/Nestsites.htm

Uh oh, she laid eggs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree with Marisa's post about creating a nesting site, just in case she has more to lay.
