Cracked shell
Posted: 24/06/2018 by oshea67

Hi
I have rescued an injured tortoise, the shell is crack from the front leg to the rear leg at the point where the shell meets the bottom half if that makes sense.
She is with my local vet who has cleaned the wound and has no infection.
The vet sais this morning that she not sure how to repair the shell....
Any advice or information would be great, or a recommendation of a vet, I'm in west London...Think she is about 8 years old...
Shes moving around ok, drinking and started to eat a little bit.
