Gooey stuff in mouth
Hi, looked at Dylan this morning and saw he had this clear weird gooey stuff on his mouth, have tried to look inside but he won't open his mouth very much but I think he has white/gooey stuff in there too. What do you think it could be?? Please help I am very worried and am going out today, also concerned as have the 2 little ones in with him as well, don't want them to catch anything
Obviously i've cleared the stuff off, here are some pics:

Looks like he ate a small slug to me. When eaten slugs give off all their slime and it's really sticky.

Would think he may have been eating a slug,or slug eggs.Not a nice habit but one of mine in particular even turns over stones to find them.It's awful to get the slime off.Hope it's nothing more than that

Thanks everyone I really hope it is just a slug or something. I was worrying about RNS etc, but he seems fine a tried to check in his mouth again and it looks clear and he's been eating away so I don't think he is ill or anything Yay!
