    Just adorable!

    My girl yawns a lot. She definitely isn't sick or anything to clarify that LOL. But she does happen to yawn quite often and it's pretty cute. I've only ever got it caught once with a picture just a couple months after having her so she was still pretty small.

    Re: OMG my snake just...

    Yes, and it's absolutely adorable. My corn snake recently woke up after a long nap, and gave the BIGGEST and longest yawn... I sooooo wish I'd had my camera handy at that moment!

    Disclaimer: If your snake is frequently yawning, check for mucus and bubbles in the mouth - as it could be an RI. But of course, I'm sure that wasn't the case here.

    Yawns are pretty scary when your snake is coming straight at your face, stops infront of your eye, and gives a bigggg yawn.

    Yeah, definitely not good! If you see bubbly yawns, it's time for a vet visit...

    It's only 3:30am here (yes, I'm a vampire ), and last I checked everyone was tuckered out... except my Stimson's Veruca, who was upside-down with her chin pressed against the lid. I took her out for a minute, since she obviously wanted to "stretch her legs."

    Here's my female Albino. I had her out just taking pictures and she let out a big yawn.

    Re: OMG my snake just...

    Mine yawned the very first time I was handling her. I was scared it was RI or a stress hiss at one of the curious cats sitting a foot and a half away.


    But when I learned more it was pretty cute
