does the black stuff chip off? my only guess is she's shedding the scutes and dirt got under them as they peeled..

as for the scratches in the shell, thats normal, all 3 of mine have scratches and what not on their carapace, no one really knows the cause but pretty much all adult boxies show such wear.
