Hi all,
My tortoise is a russian tortoise and has a broken shell (it is almost 2 years old), it did not happen off late it was like that when I brought it from the pet store. He/she is awesome and extremely active. however I was wondering how long it would take for its shell to heal. The shell is broken near its right leg. I have started giving it cuttlebone for calcium so that the shell will heal faster. Is this enough or can I do anything else to speed up the healing process ?
Appreciate your help
