Your dad's a good man. Glad his patch up worked and the little guy is still going strong.

I used to work with rehab turtles! We used similar fillers with much success because once they're cured they are inert and cause little harm. The shell will grow underneath the patch, and she will eventually shed her patch.

Hey guys! I see this post is catching some traction. Whatever comments or questions you have I'll relay back to my dad. My Dad is an amazing man who truly cares about every animal. He will really appreciate seeing what you guys have to say.
