I didn't realize this when i bough my turtles but they have these white blotches on them and they aren't puffy or feel different then the rest of the shells but can they be dangerous to them, can it be a illness? momo has big spot and appa has the lines. sry there so big

the 2nd picture is similar to what my turtle has!

are you able to dig it out? my turtle white spots we're able to be dug out and were soft, and when i took the white out, i saw the fungus had eaten away at the shell. is yours like this?

(but don't go scraping anything off, i'd wait until a more experience turte owner to give some advice)

here's the link to my turtles problem, you can look to see if they look similar since your picture is a bit blurry

no its hard and it wouldnt come off at all.

hmm..well if it's hard and doesn't smell maybe it's nothing.

my other turtle's shell started to develop white splotches because i didn't get him a basking light for awhile.

but then when i gave him a basking light and uvb and he started basking the shell looked SO much better.

ohh thx well hopefully it nothing

There is no need to double post the same question. Responses get jumbled and its much easier if you just start one thread.
So, I'm locking this thread, from now on reply to the other thread by momoandappa.
