I was wondering if anyone has ever owned or seen/heard of a snake not having a tongue? Would the snake be able to live and would this cause a snake to not wanna eat? I picked up a reg Berm Python and since I picked it up I am yet to see it fork its tongue out. It is very skinny and I have had it for a month. I been soaking it in water and giving it alot of fluids. It looks alot better now that she is taking fluids and shed but she is still not eating. I opened up her mouth and didnt see any tongue in there. There was a little bit of yellow/green stuff (Grime) in her mouth where the tongue would be next to her breathing hole. She was also invested with mites when she got here. I was able to get rid of the mites and since her shed she has none. Any help would be great. Thanks
