Can the pattern of a turtle ever change?
As a shell grows, the number of scutes generally does not change, but their size does. In some turtles, old scutes are shed and replaced by larger, new ones. In other species, including box turtles, tortoises, and wood turtles, scutes enlarge in diameter as new keratin is laid down. The "growth rings" in scutes have been used be some experts to help determine the age of a turtle. Age estimation based on growth layers, however, can be erroneous for several reasons:
How can you check how old is a turtle?
By counting the rings formed by the stack of smaller, older scutes on top of the larger, newer ones, it is possible to estimate the age of a turtle, if you know how many scutes are produced in a year. This method is not very accurate, partly because growth rate is not constant, but also because some of the scutes eventually fall away from the shell.
Do sticklebacks have scales?
No. Sturgeon have scutes that are in 5 rows down their body. Top/Sides/Belly. Scutes are like bone but are made of keratin like our fingernails and hair.Sturgeon also have scutelets and denticles that cover most their body. Some species are very smooth but most feel like sandpaper and the scutes can have very sharp spurs or barbs that easily cut flesh.
When red eared slider turtles shed their shell?
Turtles do not shed their shells. The scales on their shells, called scutes, are not supposed to come off and will almost certainly result in the death of the turtle if they do. Scute Shedding Over a period of time, the scutes will begin to shed. This is completely normal and you can notice the process when their appearance begins to lighten or become a golden color. This is due to the air seeping between the new and old scutes. It should not be necessary to help or force the old scutes off, especially when there is a proper basking area set up. It is important for your turtle to be able to regularly dry off completely. Without proper conditions, your RES will retain scutes (dysecdysis), which can lead to an infection. check out redearslider.com
