RE: The bottom of my Eastern Painted Turtle is peeling...

How often does the shedding occur? I actually just took him out a little while ago, and right after I took him out I checked his pastron, which looked fine, nothing was coming off. Then as he became dry when I played with him, I heard a paper sound as he was crawling, and I looked at his bottom and the same place that was peeling in the previous message I wrote was peeling again... Actually, the pieces are almost off! Does the shedding occur in only one spot on the turtle?

Thank you for your previous response, by the way!
