Hi there, please can someone advise if I should be worried.
After having just fed Reggie he appears to be yawning, opening his mouth wide and tipping his head back, and has done this about 4 or 5 times in the 3 or 4 mins after eating the mouse.
Is this normal? He's never done it before so am a little concerned......
Also he normally goes for a wonder round his viv after feeding and is just sat there watching me through the glass. |

They sometimes do it to pop it's dislocated jaw back into place.is or still yawning?
Mine sometimes stats in the same place or goes to hide once eaten, sometimes explores! Other times it just heads for the warm hide! |

Holly and Lister do this every time :)
Just re aligned the jaws, and I sometimes think they're pulling any muscle up that may have been pulled down a tad by the meal, but thats just what I like to think :P |

| Shoezy does this every time she feeds. Her routine is feed, stretch her bottom jaw several times, go back into her viv, drink some water, do more stretching and then sleep off her meal. |
