i noticed this morning that the skin under aggies chin is a bit loose...2 weeks ago i changed his food to large mice as he was eating more of the smaller ones he now eats 2 large mice ....could the sagging skin be due to due to him having to stretch to get it in his mouth ...or is a trip to the vet in order ...

My Kelloggs has a bit of a droopy chin, it'a the sort of thing that if he was human it'd be nearly like a double chin.
Is it like that??

I haven't worried about mine at all, but his only appeared when he had a couple of nice big XL mice on the feed before last.
It does seem like stretching to me, I've done nothing so far except keep an eye on it, it's gotten a bit tighter, but that's it.

I think we've both just stretched our snakes a little bit. Unless anyone else recommends otherwise, or unless it gets worse i'm not gonna worry about it to much. I've just got a snakie with a double-chin.
