I work at a pet store and we got a shippment of reptiles and in that shipment was an Ornate Wood Turtle. He/she has some slight splits in its shell in few places, like the shell is dividing, possibly due to lack of humidity, that is my guess... anyone have any experience with this? We had one at the store a while ago and it had the same conditions and died a few months later. I want to save this one and make sure that he/she is well taken care of, please help. I am thinking of using a shell supplemnt (vita shell ??? I think thats what its called ???).. it is like lotion for their shells, I am guessing it would be good to "seal" the cracks with moisture so they become more flexible and they can bind back together and heal. Does this sound like a good idea? Any other suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks!!!
