Hi,
My tortoise is around 12-14 months old. I got her when she was around 6-8 months old, perfectly smooth and round. Since then she had been growing very fast - from 144g to 320g currently. And she started pyramiding as well. The humidity is around 50% (she lives in an open wooden box with mostly peat moss and soil), she has access to a small pool all the time, I soak her every other day for 10-20 minutes. Please, have a look at the attached photo. Could the fast growth be the problem? Should I cut down on food? She eats two times per day around 15-20 g of green food only (no fruits, vegetables, etc.). Thanks in advance for any input.
