I'm not entirely sure if my torts have or haven't got pyramiding. I have only had them a couple of months and would appreciate any help. Please tell me if you can see any signs of pyramiding.
Thank you

Hard to tell from a straight down shot, but it doesn't appear they have any pyramiding.

Thanks for the replies, it's just that one of my lil' Hermann's has a strange bump on her shell.

Yes you do have some minor pyramiding. If all else is good like diet, calcium supplementation, UV, hydration, etc., it shouldn't be a big deal. I don't see the "bump" you are referring to.
