Yes, snakes yawn. You'll usually notice it after they eat to align they're jaws back to the original position. It's completely normal

Is it yawning or is it opening its mouth to breathe? Yawning is perfectly normal, however to catch your snake doing it so frequently seems a little unusual to me...

A minute or so? I really do not think that is yawning? Also, what do you mean by short. Yawning, or relocated their jaws, usually only takes a few seconds?

If it leaves it's mouth open for a minute.. i'd check and see if u see any mucus by it's nose or in it's mouth and if she's breathing hard.

Katty,
Your having alot of problems with your snake maybe you should sell it and get a easy corn or ball.(just a offer)Because the last thing i whant to hear is that your snake is dead or in a terible condition.

Don't worry your snake is fine. I see mine doing that yawn thing for a while too. If it looks straight up in the air for a long period of time that might be star gazer's disease. But if it doesn't look straight up for a long time and it just looks like its yawning thats fine.
