curious about my babies shell?

Someone in another thread said that there sulcata had some pyramiding going on. Well this is my first tortoise and i was wondering if rose here needs some TLC . I worry I just want her to have the best life she can have. Here's some pics.




I've only had her for a few weeks and thanks to this forum and everyone being so helpful. Rose is doing great and I believe she's as happy as a tortoise could be but if I need to start paying special attention to her shell then I most certainly will.

There is some slight pyramiding but as long as you feed her a good diet she'll grow into it and you'll be good! It will take some time but if you do the right things good things will happen. She's not in terrible shape though, you'll be just fine!

Thank alot. I've not ever been a reptile person but I gotta say I never thought I could love a tortoise so much! I find myself at work worrying whether she's doing okay or not. My tort has a great personality. She follows my daughter around when we let her Rome around the house. I think cause my daughter is so super gentle with her that he likes her.

hes/her shell does look a little dry. keep your Sulcata humid

That eating picture is darn cute!
The pyramiding isn't too bad... keep the humidity up and new growth should look smooth!

Slight Pyramiding, But he can grow smooth still.
keep him hot and humid, and on a great varied diet

Omg.. So little so cute..

Your baby has been kept too dry. Possibly before you even got her. Here is how I like to keep them:

It is much harder to stop it than it is to prevent it. The sooner you make some changes the sooner you will begin to see improvement. Just be patient. It takes awhile to get it corrected and back on track.

yep, follow link above..
also, Id be very caustios allowing her to raom around the hosue, they get lost, stepped on, eat things they shoud not and could be dangerous and its cold on the floor.
