Well there’s certainly not anything you can do about it. I’d say keep the water dish full and feed it eady to catch, soft prey like a superworm.

As long as the sucking stomach is okay it should still be able to eat. If you still have the molt I’d check it to see if the sucking stomach is in the molt.

I know of a guy that fed his mature Stirmi hornworms and silk worms when it lost both fangs. He would prekill them and it would feed on them. You may not have to pre kill them though. Looks like your T has buck teeth...:D
