Is my baby greek tortoise pyramiding?

[Chrigu]

Hello everyone
I have since 3 weeks a baby greek tortoise, im a little bit worried if my tortoise is pyramiding. I saw pictures of baby greek tortoise in the Internet, they all have those rings on their shell. But i just want to make sure that those rings are normal on my tortoise to.

Your little Greek looks perfect, but I wouldn't expect anything else after only 3 weeks

Have you read the TFO care sheets? They're written by species experts working hard to correct the outdated information widely available on the internet and from pet stores and, sadly, from some breeders and vets too.

We'll be happy to check your setup over if you post pictures of the enclosure and lighting.

Your tort looks nice and healthy. GOD bless.

Pyramiding is when the scutes grow upwards. It's like upwards growth instead of the shell getting larger.
