Hi all — any concerns regarding the length of our Peb’s beak?

We have never trimmed it, and feed them on stone slate, but my husband is worried it’s getting too long

It is a little bit on the long side, some folks take a nail file to gently file it down, I don’t think it’s long enough to need a full on trim

How old is he?
I have had mine since 2011 and never trimmed and they are not at all needing any filing.
I do not feed on slate, and I do not cut up their food and they graze outside all summer.
