Broken Jaw??!!! I really hope not! 8(

My first BP struck the side of her tub once and it seriously looked like she broke her face. One side of her mouth (at the front corner) was all mushed in and it looked horrible! I was so scared!

Turns out...she'd just snagged herself on her own teeth. (Suck one side of your bottom lip into your mouth and bite down on it....kinda like that) It took a couple of hours for her to get it all sorted out, but afterward, she was completely fine.

I accidentally put 's rat in with my shedding mojave. It was striking at even the heat from my face. It hit the tub when I ducked hard enough to it looks like caves his lower jaw in. He got the rat soon after but let go of it just before it died. Do you think it will get better ,and more importantly what do I do if it does not?

Hopefully it just popped it out of socket. It should be able to yawn it back into place but I'm going purely by mental picture of how bad it is. Pictures?

I'm sure it will be fine , I've seen that happen a few times over the years

Thanks to this thread I checked his mouth again, and found his lower (lip?) Was stuck on a tooth. I freed his "lip" and his jaw went back to normal. I'll keep a close eye on him for any infection or rot. Thanks again for the knowledge.
