I just fed my corn a lil while ago. Well he struck at the glass twice and hard...when i looked i noticed his bottom jaw is set back and seems to be slightly open on one side.. Now im not sure if that happend or ha something to do with the feeding or because of him striking the glass... He has never done anything like that before... Any advice??
