Hi people,

I have been looking around online, and I figured this is the best place to ask - I'm worried abt my res, and not sure if he has shell rot or is simply shredding.
Here is a photo of him I took just 2 days ago, can any kind folks educate me as to whether this is any cause for concern? Thks!

There's some pyramiding. Looks like he's never shed and has been overfed. Re-evaluate the diet and habitat conditions (UVB/basking).
