:He looks like he's going to be a nice, high blonde colored animal. As for the growth, it's pretty typical for leopard torts to have some pyramiding. However, decent amounts of calcium(cuttlebone) and natural sunlight will promote more natural growth. Looks good to me.....

:Good luck,

:
Also Spinch and brocoli are bad for tortoises. Try and get some hay into his diet. Like some bermuda or timothy. Not alfalfa. Go to www.turtlecafe.com . Also pyramiding may be normal to a point with leopard but he seems to be going a little over. Try giving him a little less protein and more calcium.
