Mouth

[Kristi Sanford]

Has anyone ever seen this in a tegu ? Mr.bones has like a gap in his mouth there is nothing that looks inflamed or anything no rot his lips just do not meet all the way..and he always has a little bit of his tounge hanging out feom the tip of his mouth when he's resting. Some pics have dirt from him digging its not rot...
