Tongue sticking out

have a new clutch. Our first. One of the snakes seems to keep the tip of the tongue out. Is that a problem? Thanks for your help.

If the baby is fully out of the egg, you can try a gentle dip in some clean water to try and get the egg goo off. Sometimes the albumin dries and makes the tongue stick like that.

Other than that, I would make sure that the baby doesn’t have a cleft lip or “shark mouth”(underbite) that is making the tongue sit funny.

thank you. I believe that is all it was put him in a small dish of water and it resolved. Thanks again.
