Hello. Sorry if this isn't the right sublemmy to ask about this, lemmy is still kinda small. But, my pet cornsnake has her mouth open like in the picture, normally it's closed. I did notice some coconut fiber substrate stuck in her mouth when I fed her 5 days ago. (Also she also ate the mouse butt-first, so maybe the mouse's tail got lodged or something?)

Anyway, should this be something to be worried about? Should I just wait a couple days to see if it will fix itself? What do you guys think it is

I have a bunch more of these guys if anyone is interested.

I was hoping for Erie watersnakes, but this was a nice find anyway. This area is known for having melanistic garters.

I took this picture of what looks like a Gopher Tortoise in Florida on the west coast near Tampa. It looks to me like it has teeth, which was surprising to me.

This is the smallest vertebrate I've ever seen. I had trouble picking it up over fears of squishing it (it was indoors and trapped). Unfortunately, the tail fell off in the process, but that's what tails do. It seemed impossibly small. Lago de Yojo, Honduras.

Was about 3 months old I think in this picture. Love the stretched out legs in this one!
