I have noticed that where as one of my tortoises has a minor pyramiding problem the other hasn't and has a smooth shell. I have been trying to figure out why one of my hatchlings has it and not the other as I keep them in the same enclosure and they get the same food as one another. I first thought that it was exercise but now I realise it's not. The one with the smooth shell has a lot of calcium and gnaws at the cuttle fish bone in their enclosure where the other won't go near it. I bought some powder calcium but when it's on her food she won't touch it, so I tried hand feeding her the calcium on leaves but she would only eat the parts with no powder. I know that this is a problem but I don't know what to do about it. To I force her? She is only little. Any enlightenment would be helpful. Thank you.
