    Dripping saliva
    So my soon to be 8mo male ball just dropped some saliva out his mouth, it's not like ri saliva no bubbles no signs of ri, no constant flow I had him out for about 10 minutes and when I when to put him up it was like a glob of saliva just fell, I immediately checked him and I don't see anymore, what could this be? I did just buy an ir temp gun and had to turn up his hot side a bit cuz the cheapo thermometer apparently are off, and he's been spending more time on the cold side then ever, what gives hot side now is 91 cold 80 ambient 82 humidity 65. What gives?

    Sounds like water that he had just drank, leaked back out.

    Gotta remember these animals respiratory systems and "throats" really are pretty crude operating systems, but work.

    Ive seen it with my own animals, as well as have many others.

    Just keep an eye on him to make sure your not seeing any RI symptoms.

    I had my young albino boa do That before. It scared me half to death, but my wife had seen him drinking a few minutes before I had taken him out.
