    Exclamation Yawning

    Hi guys my BP -petra has been yawning alot, ive read alot of mixed responses on the internet about why she could be doing it. I aquired here on the 22nd of june and she has still not had a feed, i noticed one night her eyes were dull coloured and thought it may be time for a shed which was on the 29th of june.......now 7 days later she has done nothing but stay on the cool side of the tank and not move (apart from today where she is quite active and 'yawning' alot.....

    It may be something i can fix quick but has anyone got any ideas what it could be?
    Thanks

    If she's going into shed she could be yawning to loosen the skin on her head. This could be an early sign of RI, but thats really unlikely...some ball pythons just seem to do it for no reason.
