Does he look healthy to you?

[wafisherman]

Definately some pyramiding going on. Best thing you can do is ensure you are providing the right needs for him going forward and that should help.

How old is it?

Does he feel light in the hand or heavy? Does the shell feel thin at all or very solid?

Here is the checklist that you want to research:

Diet
Substrate
Exercise
Light (UVB and UVA)
Temps
Humidity

A baby tort needs humidity. Getting some good substrate helps here.

He should be in a good sized tort table now for indoor times, and should have an outdoor pen ready for when he quickly outgrows the indoor tort table. No glass tanks!

I use a mix of play sand (10%) and organic top soil (80%) in my tort table. Coconut husk fiber (the expanding brick stuff) is also good mixed with a little play sand. I have an area with about 5-6inches of the soil for digging. Part of that is covered and used as the hide for nap\sleep time. This acts as a humid hide also. The rest of the tort table is set up to allow plenty of exercise and things to climb up and around. Areas of tile to walk and climb and areas of tort seed mixes planted. And of course, a shallow dish to soak in that is easy to get in and out of.

Sulcatas need a very high fiber and low protein diet. Avoid suger high foods as well exept for monthly treats in small quantities (fruits and many veggies). A staple should be good quality grass hay (timothy and orchard grass for example - NOT alphalpha which is high in protien). They won't want this of course if you spoil them with fresh greens and treats all the time, but it is very important. You want slow steady growth.

Other greens inlcude collards, spring mix, dandilions (mine love these I pick from my non-fertalized and pesticide free yard), mustard greens, dark green lettuces (NO iceburg), and other weeds (just be sure you know what you are getting - some things can be toxic).

Soak him also for 10-15 mins at day in shallow slightly warm water. Change water if he poos in it...
