I just picked up a few new hissers, and one had an ooth. protruding. It is still hanging out, and has been for over 24 hours. What should I do ? Will she eventually drop it?

between 3 days and 2 weeks BUT she could pull it back in for the upper end of the scale. Try not to stress her or she will drop it!
