Hows Olive's shell looking?

[BlueBaron]

Olive seems to be growing quite quickly; she is just over 4 months old and 55g but she did hatch out on the large side to begin with at 17g. I just wanted to make sure her shell is looking all right, to me it looks fine but I have only had her since April and she is my first tortoise.






This is how she woke up this morning Silly tort.

Lovely little tortoise! Your coconut coir looks dry, though.

Lovely little tortoise! Your coconut coir looks dry, though.

It was dry because that pic was taken in the morning, directly under the basking spot, and I had not turned the coir yet or misted. Thank you for your concern though

It looks like she MAY have just a little early pyramiding, but I could be wrong. What is the humidity in your enclosure?

 

[BlueBaron]

Humidity is usually between 50 and 55%, higher following misting. I turn the coir in the am and mist, then mist in the pm. She also has a humid hide that she utilizes and has become fond of digging herself into the coir under the heat lamp as of late. She also gets bathed at least 5 days a week, 20-30 mins each time. Shes sitting in a bath right now as I am typing this I'll upload some more pics later.

Thanks guys It was by chance that I ended up with Olive; I had the breeder send me pics of all the tortoises he had available and on the day I told him I would decide he contacted me with a picture of a new hatchling much lighter than the others and my choice was made right then and there. Had she not hatched out when she did I would have had an entirely different tortoise!
