Ever seen a snake yawn?

[angrygamer]

It is the funniest thing in the world, the first time you see it.

There's different degrees of yawn as well...
There's the quick yawn to adjust the jaw between pieces of food, then there's the huge 10 second yawn where the top of the head flips right back - that's less frequent... I've only seen ours yawn like that a couple of times, lucky one of those was Lacrimosa our big female Cuitzeo.

heh, well I was sitting there looking at Glyph's tank, and he started opening his mouth - the first time you see it you are completely caught off guard because you don't know what's happening - it's a real OMG moment.

This was a big one, maybe not 10 seconds but he made a point of stretching each mandible, left and right and then looked at me as if saying, "what are you looking at?"

Mama lets out one of those "I just woke up" yawns sometimes when I accidentally wake her up. Those are biiiiig yawns.

[Mommy2many]

I like to catch them doing it and then call them "lazy snakes"!

[Mommy2many]

Yeah, almost like, "Have you never seen a snake yawn?" Meanwhile, we are waiting for something spectacular to happen, like something humongous gets swallowed or the like...

Yep...the first couple of times I saw it I thought something was terribly wrong. I still pause for a sec when I see it to make sure that is exactly what is happening and not something else. But it is very cute. Cee Cee can do some pretty impressive big yawns.
