Today i tolk gypsy out for her first handling since bringing her home earlier in the week. I took her out and she did great no nervousness, she explored and chilled out. Well also today i made some changes to her enclosure. I added a second hide rock to her enclosure on the cool side changed her substrate to eco earth (im allergic to all woods) and added a branch for her basking spot.

Well here are my questions:
when i was holding her i felt some rough scales on her and felt some that were lifted from her body is this normal?

Also when i put her in back in her enclosure she went straight to the new hide hole and had her head sticking out. Wekl my question do snakes yawn? Because she had opened and closed her mouth a few times then curled up and i guess is now sleeping.

Just incase its relevant her temps are 85 on the warm end 75-78 on the cool end and her humidity is usually about 65.
