My turtle's shell is uneven. I dont know how long it has been this way but i just noticed it. The shell looks normal from the front but it slops down in the back on both sides.

That doesn't sound abnormal to me. Do you have a pic?

Is your turtle a hatchling (under a year of age)? It's not uncommon for them to have a slight slope on the sides. It should round out as your turtle grows.

The pictures don't come out right. You can't really see the slope in them. He is under a year old ...he's only 8 months. Thanks a lot you've been a big help

even if the pics are a little fuzzy, if you post them maybe we could still help. :D
