    Boa yawning question

    Is there anything to be alarmed about if she keeps opening her mouth wide like she's yawning? She did it 3 times in a few minutes. I imagine it's nothing to be concerned about but I wanna make sure, because it'll bug me if I don't know. thanks in advance.

    Did she just eat? Is her throat blowing out like a frog? I doubt it's anything to be concerned of, mine all do this from time to time.

    No sir she ate 3 or 4 days ago. she kind of did one side first then the other. Her throat did kinda stretch some. She stopped like I said I just get paranoid since it's my first snake. Thank you for the piece of mind.

    She was just re-aligning. Nothing to worry about unless she's constantly doing it or "bull-frogging" her throat to breath.
