In biology there is no black and white... only grey. I've seen many reduced nucal scutes and many exagerated nucal scutes. I'm sure there has to be a degree of some that don't exist at all... I've not seen one though.


>>General question, has anyone ever seen an aldabra tortoise tha thas no nucal scute? We hatched out some last year for this first time and would like to get a straight factual answer.
