Pancreas Chitin

+0
−0

Okay so I am making these arthropod looking humanoid mammalian species, so think of a human with armadillo armor and jointed sloth arms. And I have heard that the pancreas produces Chitin so my question is what would it take for the pancreas to produce enough chitin to make chest, back, and loin armor, mandibles on the chin, along with chitin spikes on the back of the arms and legs and on the the fingers and toes (like a sloth) and for the skin to handle this new feature?
