Click to expand...

Well, if you can't hear the clicking at any time other than when eating, I don't think it would be too serious. It might even have something to do with the jaw "dislocating" and popping back in to place.
 
ive heard this clicking during a yawn once or twice. repositioning the jaw. but if you listen after you feed him a few days. handle him and listen and see if you can hear it. clicking could be a respiratory infection, but its not the only time it could be heard either. like said about the yawn.
 
oh hope she doesn't have the respiratory thing :S when shes digested her food (fed her today ) i'l pick her up and have a listen . thanks
 
I have one that clicks while in shed everytime it could be that time soon too. Only freak if it is something you hear while not eating or in shed for more than a day or too:)
 
I've noticed the clicking sound when my snake is eating as well. I am almost sure it is due to respiration... pretty normal.
 
You know i don't know if this could be it but you could just not be seeing him rattle his tale cause when i feed my snake as soon as he sees the mouse he starts to rattle his tale and it could be his tale hitting something :eatsmiley
 
nah it aint her tail rattling cos i can only here the clicks when the mouse is atleast half way into her mouth and she dusn rattle her tail (well she never has anyway :p) il listen to her tomo when i can pick her up ..
