Richard,

EJ is right. That will eventually smooth out in time. I have had hatchlings simliar or even worse that grew out just fine.

No worries. Besides, by the time it is five inches the affected area would be tiny compared to the rest of the carapace.

But I think you will find that in a month or so it will be barely detectable.
