    How often do your balls "Yawn"?
    Was just wondering what the normal frequency of your snakes yawning was. Mine always does when shes around food and of course after she eats. I also maybe see her do it once or twice throughout the week without the presence of food. She shows zero signs of an RI no wheezing, no bubbling or any mucous. I never see her with her head resting on the glass as infected pythons do. Just want to make sure the few times I see her yawning without the presence of food is normal. and not a sign of illness.

    They sometimes do it to taste the air. Same results as the tongue flicking. Excessive yawing is a sign of an RI but some yawns while the snake is exploring is normal.

    If your warm side is between 92-94 and your cool side is 82-84 with a humidty of 50% we have nothing to worry about. How about that?

    Alright everything should be fine, I always worry my pets are sick from the smallest sign. I guess im a hypochondriac when it comes to pets. But I guess its better to be safe then sorry.

    yeah my snake yawns sometimes when exploring... one time during handling he coughed, that kinda tripped me out

    he sucked in a bunch of air and kinda bellowed, maybe it was a sneeze, who knows, only seen it once
