So my Yellow Bellied Slider, Ninja, has really Horrible looking Shell And i wanna know if there is something wrong. or does he just need a good shedding?




its a Pretty big photo >.<

She could use a good shed, though one area is of concern:



Is it receding? Soft? Smell? Discolored?

Oh okay. phew. THANKS. i also have another question.
How frequent to they generally shed?

yeah i was pretty concerned about that spot.. but it's not soft, smelly, or discolored..

Optimally, they should shed close to once a year. Did you know what happen to that area? It should be carefully checked out.

okay thanks for the advice steve. Very helpful as always.

Just my thoughts on that spot, looks like shell rot was there and has since healed.

REALLY?! Shell rot!?
