I have a female boa that last night I noticed something didnt look right first of all her skin looks like it is sagging she is poss gravid but has been excepting a small med rat every other week, the thing is she wont eat f/t anymore so we have been feeding her thumped... well about a month or so ago one kind of got her in the mouth when she released it the top teeth was suck in the roof of her mouth... anyways last night i noticed dried up crust on the sides of her mouth i couldnt quite get her mouth opened all the way but the crusty stuff is on both sides and its a yellowish brown color and her top lip looks likes its swollen a bit im going to try and get her mouth open all the way and see what it looks like inside... anyways my question is... Is there anything i can use to sorta wash her mouth out with and could it possibly be an infection from the rats teeth getting stuck in the roof of her mouth? Thank You for any imput
