Tutu says hello

[sdbmc]

So I introduced myself on this forum last week, now it's time to introduce Tutu, 4 yr old 8.5cm Hermann. (BTW first pic was in his temporary home, he now has a big outdoor enclosure - see 2nd pic).
Have one question - how does his shell look? Does he look as though he is pyramiding (I've only had him 2 mths) and if it is with the right diet and soaking will this improve?

Hello and welcome! I'm new to the forum as well. I think Tutu is beautiful! Congrats and I love the outdoor setup!

Beautiful tort

Beautiful tort, I really like your outdoor enclosure

 

[Yellow Turtle01]

Yes, @sdbmc . That tort is pyramiding. Pyramiding usually happens because your little guy is dry and his home isn't humid enough. Keep soaking, mist his home... it won't reverse it but it will stop it
