It looks deformed as if it wasn't fed properly.

I hope your'e not talking about my boy.
Problem we have with box turtles in the UK is the (seldom) available ones are old wild caught ones from the 80's and 90's (like my boy) or captive bred adults that aren't always perfect (like RFM's). You really have to take whats on offer. I believe RFM's is a new addition so any growth issues (and I'll admit, I've seen better) are not down to him. |
