Bertus has from what i see already pyramiding. The shell does not look smooth in this pic. I might be wrong. Soak more in water, hydrate with veggies, romaine and i soak mazuri in water. But everybody has its own way to treat their torts. I'm not an expert in pyramiding, since mine never had this issue.

Beautiful little tort :D

Proper hydration
Proper uv access
Proper exercise
Proper diet

These are important factors to strive towards....you can also offer up a warm humid hide (that never falls below 80-83 degrees) this way the tort can juicy up when it feels the need....:D
