Hi,
My corn was sitting on top of his log last night with his mouth open. Never seen him do this before and it was only for a couple of minutes before he closed it and went off back under log. Is this anything to worry about? I checked the temps and everything is ok and he doesn't seem agitated at all.
Thanks.
Liz. |

Had it gone through the shedding process recently? If it has any retained shed on its head its nostrils may be blocked, and therefore it'll be breathing through its mouth. |

Temp were about 80F (warm end) - 72F (cool end)
Nothing else untoward, no mucous or bubbles, will keep a close eye on him though to see if anything occurs. |

what are your temps(warm and cool ends)?
is there any mucous splattered on the glass? (it's often more noticeable on the glass rather than the side of a viv)
was there anything in his mouth?
was he blowing bubbles from his mouth or nostrils?
