>>my tortoises lower beak is longer than the upper beak. how to correct this. ill post pics when someone replies

How large is the tortoise? What are you feeding? Beak overgrowth is usually caused by too much protein or too nutrient rich diet. A mineral block, or cuttle bone may help wear it down a bit
