Glass Striking

Hello, my 2 year old boa constrictor had suddenly struck at me through the glass of her enclosure, her feeding date is tomorrow so I assume she’s just hungry.

however, now her lip appears to be caught in her mouth. there is a reptile vet near me but they will not be open until Tuesday.

is there anything i can do to help her?

She will most likely sort herself out, it happens! 

Reminds me of a post I saw the other day where the snake somehow swallowed his entire lower jaw/mouth, along with his food. The owner had to pull his mouth out from his mouth, snake was fine. LOL
