I sold one of the hatchlings to a friend n she has just rung me saying its bubbling from its mouth while its eating, like its got too much saliva. I haven't seen it so I don't know if its anything to worry about. Any ideas or similar experiences?.

could be just the amount of saliva the snake produced while eating, the bubbling mouth during eating on its own is not a problem, if there is saliva around the snakes mouth normally then that could possibly be an RI, just wait and find out from the new owner if its just while its eating there is the saliva.

if it's resolved after feeding and till the next feed i'd say it was nothing to worry about
if it's persistant then they need to check the temps they're running at cos they're prolly too low
