Hi Kim,
one of the major causes of pyramiding is a diet too high in protein.
Sulcatas are grazing herbivores, they require a high fiber, low protein diet.
Grazing on grasses, and other edible weeds and plants iut the best diet for sulcatas.
See the link below for photos of pyramided tortoises versus those with normal growth.
