My Russian tort was in her outside enclosure and when she came in she had something on her beak. I assumed it was food but when I took my fingernail it came off very easily and it was a chip in her beak!!! Will it grow back? Is it going to be ok? She seems to be eating so…. Any advice would be helpful. She does have some Lannon stones in her enclosure for her to climb on.

The beak needs to be trimmed. It is very much overgrown. A vet should be able to do it if you are not comfortable doing it.

Seriously overgrown. If it is not trimmed back, it is in danger of splitting and causing painful damage to the face/mouth that is hard to heal.
