Hi Guys,

I've had my tortoise for just over two weeks now. He is a horsefield tortoise.
I've noticed that on his shell he has some yellowish marks (maybe pale green) on some it just looks like the black has faded a little bit but on one bit it almost looks like they're bubbled marks on his shell. Does that make sense?
Is that normal, is he just growing or something?
He seems happy enough, he eats fine each day and is quite active for about five hours each night he is walking around or digging. All his stools have been solid he goes every time I soak him.
Is there anything to worry about or should I just continue as normal.
