Quick question on red foots... is pyrimiding on the carapace scutes normal during any time during their growth. Specifically, this individual is about 6 in. long and has some pyrimiding. it is fed 3 times a week with osteoform during one of those feedings. should the osteoform supply be increased to help w/ the pyrimiding? thanks in advance.
