Hi,
I have two sulcata hatchlings and I was wondering how you can notice pyramiding.

mctlong said:You can notice pyramiding by the bumpiness of the shell. A completely un-pyramided sully has a smooth shell (i.e., each scute lays flat side by side). A pyramided sully has raised scutes that do not lay flat.
Can you post a picture of the hatchlings? We can tell you if they''re pyramiding. Do you know how old they are?

Menno said:I have a humid hide in my enclosure, but they never use it. Do i have to place them in it? However, I don't think the humidity is a problem since I live in the Netherlands. The average humidity is here about 85-95%!
