    Yawn ??

    Hi guys,

    I've noticed a couple of times my Royal making a " yawn " with his mouth,now I'm guessing that's not a normal yawn like us humans do,anyone got any ideas what it could be,maybe his hungry ?

    It's normal for them to yawn. Don't worry about it~

    Snakes yawn just like other animals. They also will realign their jaw with a yawn like motion. Its not a sign of hunger.

    Snakes pass gas too.

    It's fairly rare to catch a snake yawning, unless it's just after they had eaten. If your snake does this frequently, I'd suggest reading up on respiratory infections, just to be safe!!
