Julie, Unfortunately these kinds of abnormalities do not improve with age. They tend to worsen depnding upon the kind they are. I had a redfoot hatchling with a hairlip when it hatched and I thought it might grow together as the tortoise grew but the gap only widened. Are the eyes, nose and beak okay? Vickie
