The turtle in the picture is one of my Craig's List "rescues", The Gulf Coast Integrade. She has some shell damage and possible old inactive shell rot. It's nothing terribly serious at this point, but to be safe, her shell was scrubbed with Betadine (by my friend Jerry). This removes any sort of dirt or other foreign matter that may be trapped in the grooves of the shell, and kills harmful bacteria.
