I never see my guy flick his tongue. Ever. He seems happy, is exploratory and easy to handle. He "sits up" and puts his head about 4-6 inches off the ground and looks around often. Is he trying to utilize his sense of sight to make up for no smells?

Ive never checked his mouth before but where would I look to see his tongue? I watched a YouTube video that shows where they breath from and how it opens and closes when their mouth is open.

I hate having to stress him out to look inside his mouth, but do I need to see a tongue to know he's healthy? He has eats and sheds well. Even when the mouse is in front of him I don't see a tongue. And he ALWAYS eats. Quickly.

Should i I be worried? Sorry about all the posts lately, I'm learning as much as I can as I go. Trying to be a good snake dad.
