    Unhappy Weird Question..

    So, I got my ball (Augustus) out a few mins ago to chill while I'm studying and i notice that when he flicks his tongue, it is barely coming out of his mouth...what does this mean, if anything? I'm a HUGE worry wart, especially when it comes to Augustus >.< please help!

    Do you hear any popping or wheezing with breathing? Is there any mucus smeared on the inside of his enclosure?

    That's good. It's probably not an RI.

    Is he new to you and this is the only way he's ever flicked his tongue, or is this a new behavior?
