A while back, I got an adult female Russian tortoise that is very deformed. It's almost like she was stepped on by a horse, her shell is caved in, and the edges flare out at the back. She's in perfect health now, and I've had her for over a year. I spotted the smaller male mating with her this afternoon, and I'm wondering, if she ends up gravid, would she be able to lay eggs alright?

Thanks, Cliff
