General Care Discussion :: pics of shell problems

[pumpkinsherbet]

i was wondering if anyone had any available pictures, or could help me locate pictures of pyramiding (stages), softshell and any other shell problems. there seem to be some natural occurences that seem to mimic problems, and of course the natural hump in their shell. i just would like to see pictures to get an idea of when to worry and when it's a natural thing.

thanks.

If you read through some of the posts, there are pic of some of the problems you mentioned in the threads.

If you read the basics and give your turtle a good habitat and diet (without overfeeding), though, you shouldn't have to worry about shell problems.

thank you muchly. i hope not to have any of those problems (i'm trying very hard to give them a good home) but sometimes it happens and i want to make sure i'm prepared.
