Even after the whole mix up he was still nice enough to drive all the way down here and make the trade back..and he was even nice enough to give me a lift home anyways i have my new female tort and she is beutiful!!! thanks again ed

Hello Adam, you only need a couple of drops for the entire fractured area, and don't try to spread it around with the tip because it won't bond as well. After you clean the area with the Betadine, let it dry for about 10-15 minutes. Then you just put a couple of drops, say one every cm along the fracture and hold it tight together for 30 seconds. Let it dry for about a half hour, and then re-clean the area around the wound with the Betadine to prevent infection. Try to keep the area clean and repeat the cleaning with the Betadine every 8-12 hours for 3-5 days. After that, he should be good as new. If you see any discharge, or smell anything weird, post again, and I'll help you out. Sorry it took me so long to respond, I wasn't available until just now. Good luck and take care, Johnny.

Hello Adam, it seems that I took too long to get back to you, and I hadn't yet noticed your new post so I posted instructions anyway. That is awesome that he took it back, and definitely cool that he will treat the wound. As long as you are happy with the new Tortoise, this has been a happy ending of sorts. Please keep us updated on your new arrival, and any news about the injured one would be cool also.
Take care, Johnny.
