So I was watching my turtles for a while and noticed this large browish spot on my 6 Year old Male RES. I dont know if he got bit, if its a ear abces, or what. I took some pictures of the best quality I could but got a few okay ones. Anyone have any idea? I dont think its shedding at all as well...

It is on his NECK Foreskin like the skin that goes over there head when they go in there shell, not on the neck its self.

It looks like a bit mark from another turtle. My female and other male gets that when the my male claws bites them sometimes. Its exactly where the bit mark always is one them too. I would go with its a bite from another turtle.
