But for a fake, you got to love the pyramiding that they included.

Hahaha!! I find it interesting how people think of pryamiding as normal. Its common, but I would never consider it 'normal'

It drives me absolutely NUTS when I see that! And its rampant. You can't hardly find a non-pyramided tort trinket anymore... Disgusting.

My statement was dripping with sarcasm. I think the folks who make these and other pieces, use as models, what is seen in pet stores or other places. And we must admit, the pyramided tortoise is the common tortoise seen in today's world.

Looking at the light, I notice you're using a coil bulb...coil bulbs can have negative effects to your tortoises eyes.
