Taking care of your turtle's overall health.

My musk turtle Charcoal has some goldish parts on his shell and some grey lines between the scutes. Part of his shell is also brown. He eats zoo-med musk turtle sinking pellets and pond-weed. Does the shell indicate any kind of illness :shock: ? Apologies if I'm being a bad owner :cry:
