Soft spots

My Tortoise has soft portions around the squares of her shell on the top and the bottom. I was just wondering if there is anything i can do to fix this and what is causing this.

Soft spots on a tortoise shell are a bad sign. The very best thing to do is to see a vet. At the least, you probably need a change in diet, but there could be other things wrong as well that only a vet can tell you about.

Keep it slow and steady.

I think you should probably take it to the vet to be seen!! Good luck
