If I were to breed my tortoise, who's shell is slightly pyramiding...Would his/her babies have pyramided shells too? Or other related health problems??

Yes there is a difference.. and No, not a school with a degree.

Try using the Reptisun 10.0 long tube(in case your using the compacts which are bad for their eyes)smoke_kush said:Truth. I am also a little concerned with the coloration of my Sulcata's shell. It has been getting darker by the minute. Is it caused by calcium intake or his uvb? I was reading about uvb's that cause reptiles to not open their eyes. I took my tort out and was really really concerned with what I saw. He kept blinking a lot and didn't really stop until I soaked him. I hope he's okay but I use a 5.0 uvb ZooMed iguana light. Do I need a new one? I bought the TNT from Carolina pet supplies and was wondering if you can use calcium and TNT at the same time, or is it one or the other?
