Jaw issues

[ramstralia5]

Hey everyone, I just have a quick question. I feed my ball python today an adult size mouse for the first time. Wow did she stretch to get it down. I have noticed that she is fat and happy(good) but she keeps on trying to align her jaws back... I mean like she has done it 3 times since I started this post. Its not just a yawn but the movement of her lower jaw...

Thanks,

D

it will eventually go back into place. sometimes they can strike too hard and it will fold their bottom jaw down and they keep yawning to get it back, but it eventually goes. they know what to do, just let them be and they will get it

She will work it into place
