Got a question that may sound odd but how do RES's grow do they shed parts of their shell or what/how does it work?

Glad to see they found their way to a good home  It's deplorable the conditions turtles seem to be so often found in. A friend of mine took in a Painted turtle he found... it was living in a fish bowl (no water) with a slice of bread

If your snake is shedding flakey-like, he's not shedding right...

Yah I don't have a snake but you know it was an example. Yah these reses shells are slowly getting rid of the cuts. The white marks get smaller and smaller.

Kewl I own a Ball python and rescued a res turtle and was put on a fast learning curve so when I was moving him one day to clean his cage part of his shell kinda flaked off in my hands and starting getting worried if that was normal or not since having a BP who when sheds Sheds everything in one nice roll got me thinking that it was hopefully just a normal thang Thanx *g*
