I have had this ally snapper for a few months now, and he has recently developed several white patches. On the photos, hopefully you can see one at the base of the tail, and another on the right side of the head. He also has these pink lines the run along the forelimbs, but I'm having a hard time remembering whether they have always been there. The other thing I have noticed is the scutes scraping off on the plastron. I have a Florida snapper, and a few musks, but I have never noticed this before. Are these all symptoms of one disease? I can try to get better pictures. Thanks in advance for the help.
