I've had him 2 years and he's never had a snail unless he's found one himself. No aparrent teeth issues

I used to feed Boeing snails weekly, but it's been very seldom in the past 4 months, and I can definately see buck teeth on him. I'm growing some speck pond snails to size right now hoping to wear his beak down, I know dp beak problems are extreemly uncommon, but I'm pretty sure I can see one in the works.
No matter how magnificent your successes or devastating your failures, the worlds' approximately 5 billion impoverished people could not possibly care less.
