That's what the local pet shop fellow told me. He has an eighty pound sulcata with really no pyramiding and said he raised it from a baby almost exclusively on the Mazuri tortoise diet. I'll get a photo of that animal next time I'm there and post it here.

Here's the photo of ours next to a dollar. The plastron measures 4.5 inches long and just under 3.5 inches wide if I measured correctly. Is that about right for a yearling?

I really appreciate all the info.
