EJ The tortoise has been out 2 weeks now and these pics were taken today. The top pic gives the best perspective of the depth of the dip. I have been soaking it and during the first week it sat on wet paper towels absorbing it's yolk. I hope your right but this is a deep dip, unlike folds I've also seen in new hatchlings....Thanks for your observation - I hope your right! later Richard
