i've only had 3 ft boas before and this is my first time caring for a baby. i have done all the research and it is being well taken care of. well, recently (the last 2 days) he will open his mouth wide for no aparent reason, then you can hear a little clicking noise or something a long those lines....it isn't in aggressition. and i'm wondering if you guys know what it is and how to fix it? or should i just go to the vet? i can have him at the vet tomorrow, but i'm wondering if he needs something else.......any help is greatly appreciated!!!!!!!!!!

might be a respiratory infection. at least this is the standard answer for the clicking noise anyway. i would say a vet visit might be appropriate.
