Ellie and Isaac

[Rhyno47]

First Ellie, she is 5 months old now.

My guess is that she is indeed female. Anyone else have an opinion?

Next Isaac he is almost 1 year old.

In this picture his lamp creates a shadow between his scutes. Looks like pyramiding but it isn't.

Hey, Ryan: haven't seen you posting here in a couple'a months. Glad to see you back!!!

Yeah, I too, think that Ellie is a girl...but I've been wrong before! Doncha' just love those little box turtle faces?

Isaac is turning out quite pretty. He's lookin' good!

 

[Rhyno47]

I don't know where I've been.

Glad to see you posting again. Do you also belong to the M4C forum? Somebody on there was using that same pic. Can't remember the name, but Rhyno sounds familiar...

BTW, if that isn't pyramiding, please tell me what it is. Hate to give you bad news, but that is what most of us refer to as pyramiding. Don't worry too much about it. If all else is good, its only cosmetic.

He has raised scutes in the center of each scute. He wasnt very well taken care of before I got him. Ever since then he has had fairly flat new growth. Each scute has a little plateau in the center now.

Ellie looks like Chewy's cousin. Very cute buggy eyes.

Isaac's a champ. What else can I say?
