I was just feeding one of my juvenille bredlis. She struck at the food item and then fell off it. When i observed her it looked like she had done something to her mouth, and it looked as if her tooth was sticking out the side. She kept trying to align her jaw for a bit and kept opening her mouth after it. Im not to sure what to do? Can anyone give me any advice? She aligned her jaw by the and and took the food item. What should i do?
Thanks guys

my stimmie did this a few weeks ago after he missed the pinkie, dun think anything bads happened, he ended up eating the item and all was good. But yeh he was doing exactly what you say your bredli was doing, probably nothing to much to worry about (hope)

Probably just knocked her jaw out of line. She'll be right.

You probably didn't see a tooth.. their teeth aren't very big. If she's still in trouble tomorrow, worry about it. I'm tipping her not to be in any trouble (though I tipped Australia vs England and NZ against France..)

if something does go wrong, and its still there tommorow, take it to a specialized herp vet to get it looked at  they will give you the proper treatment and what-not.
hope that helps regards,
Nat

I'd imagine tooth damage wouldn't be a really uncommon thing.. so on the off chance it has damaged a tooth I would imagine it wouldn't be too hard to fix.. I think the best way to go is keep an eye on it though.. Otherwise if you are really concerned take it for a vet check just to be safe
