This seems peculiar...

Took my baby out while I cleaned her reptile carpet from a recent poo and while I had her out I noticed her "chewing" for lack of better words. She would pause while smelling and would slightly open her mouth in sort of a rolling motion or "chewing". The only time I have ever seen it was after a snake fed and needed to readjust their jaws. Several times she did this. Her head wasn't flattened or any other signs of distress that hognoses usually do if they feel threatened.

I know they are rear fanged and was wondering if it were something to do with them? Heard that hognose "chew" on prey items sometimes when feeding to envenom or stun their prey with their fangs. Could it mean she is getting hungry? I doubt that though cause she just ate Friday and it was 2 pinkie mice.
