If he's just sitting there basking with his mouth open it's usually a sign that he's enjoying the temperature and just basking. As long as he has the option to move to a cooler spot it shouldn't be anything to worry about.
Oh my gosh, this makes me so happy. I'm a new mom to an adult beardie and still don't "get" a lot of what he does!
He was doing this on his basking platform last night, is this gaping? It's about 100-103 on the platform and 75 on the cool side.
As you can tell by this picture, he's also VERY interested in his new UV light, he keeps rearing up on it and clawing at it, almost touching his nose to the bulb!
