: I would say--Pyramidding is a bone deformity akin to hunch-back or rickets. It is caused, in part, by an inadequate diet causing an imbalance of vitamins and minerals. In severe cases it could potentially cause harm to the tortoise. And at the minimum it is esthetically unpleasing- (was I politically correct enough? Or should I have said makes the tortoise ugly?).
