I have about a five year old female that quit eating a couple of weeks ago, a couple days ago she started opening up her mouth alot, as if to help breath, today her mouth appears swollen enough that I don't think she could shut it all the way if she wanted to, and a bruise seems to be on the bottom of her jaw, very lethargic also. Just yesterday she was all over her cage. I have kept snakes for years and never had a problem so I admit I am very ingnorant of health issues, and pleeding for help.
