Yawning

They yawn sometimes, I just don’t catch mine in the act usually. If it’s excessive, I’d listen to his breathing, but I’m sure he’s fine :)

Mine do this once in awhile. I thought it had to do with stretching their jaw muscles to stay flexible, like we stretch our muscles. I’ve seen other animals stretch their jaw muscles, like cats, and cows, and horses. Even chickens do this with their beaks, and fish do this.
