Gular Scute is about 3 inches long on this desert tortoise i adopted.when he tries to take a bite his bottom jaw rams into the top of the gular scute. he cant reach over it and eat on flat ground at all basically i have to hand feed him because if left alone he seems to get tired or discouraged and quit eating altogether, unknown age but pretty old because hes about 16 inches long. can this be trimmed?
