That's a pretty vague description FP Maybe a little more info? If it was after feeding, then that's normal, so when was it that it occured?

Is he due to shed?
If so it could be he is just breaking the skin ready to get the opening to slide out of it.

yeawning is pretty common, although it most frequently happens to align the jaw after a feed

It would still have been hours ago no matter where in the world you were lol.

As GP said it is very common after a feed so they can realine their jaws but other than that i don't know.
