: Both are caused by the same thing. Insufficient calcium and other bone-building trace-elements (and/or D3) to meet the requirements of the animal during growth phases. Simple biology. Such deficiencies may be relative or absolute.

Am I to assume if you have a year old sulcata, that is pryamiding slightly and being fed only
a variety of high cal. low phos. greens, orchard
grass hay, and cactus pads that you can correct
the onset of future pyramiding by upping the D3
doseage? What are your thoughts on this, and in
your experience do most young sulcatas "bump" in
the early stages.
