Boa upper mouth looks puffy

omnifelpur Mar 21, 2012 08:53 AM

Hello all, just noticed this on my boa and wanted to get some feedback.

She's 9 years old, is eating fine, defecating fine, not drooling, as active as ever. I did notice the top of her maw seems puffy, just enough where her mouth doesn't seem to close all the way. I wanted to get some feedback before I decided to wait it out and see if it goes away or take her into a vet.
