here is 1 more pic shows the pink on him a bit better though not great,, but I posted to show 1 way of telling mites, you can see how swallen the eye is even a mite up on the neck.. he has been treated for a week now and hes looking better every day, hopefully in two more weeks there will be no more and he will be back to his former glory ... he is great to hold and has a cheacky lil look when he looks at you threw his viv

He just needs to be in the sun for good pictures or seen in the flesh to apreciate |

It still looks amazing to me  is he slightly dehydrated? maybe its just me. You can see the tick/mite sticking the scale up on his neck its nice to see pics of it so others know what to look for. When I had a python with ticks it took me a while to figuire out exactly what they were as there are no pics online
|
| FRANK |
dunno about dehydration.. y u think that.. yes tht is a mite under the scale pretty sure they all dead now, but getting them out aint easy he is riddled in them not sure how he got to such a state since the show but hope to have him sorted now, gonna try a feed tomoz.. finggers crossed tht hes happy to eat, mite eggs can hatch in 8 hours so it dnt take long if leftf |
| jac1986 |
I just said about dehydration mainly because behind his head (In the pic of your scared friend holding him) it "looks" a little bit like a boa I saw that was dehydrated.
Is there any way you could post some more pics of the mite/mites as i feel it would be helpfull to others. |
| FRANK |
there is a possibility he is heavly infested so id not rule it out and he could do with some food in him to bulk him out, hes been given a fluff tonight to check his appitite and took it with such force and speed i was not ready for lol the rat exploded and guts n blood every where big meal for him tomoz.. as for mites i cant but here is a real good site on them lil sh*t heads
