i'm probably worried for nothing but, my snake is soaking and he never soaks. anyway my vision isn't just bad, it's pitiful, like i'm legaly blind without my glasses and it's not much better with them, so how can i tell if my snakes got mites if theres no way for me to see them? i tried focusing really hard but all i gout was a headache ;_;

He might just need to soak for a good shed. But you can always get a little olive oil on a paper towel and let him slither through it. It should take off some mites so you can see them better if they're there, plus help with both mite and shedding issues.

i doubt it's a shed his last one was in the begining of febuary, the other thing that made me think it might be mites was he was rubbing his lips against his coils like he had an itch or something i've got it on video i'll have it hosted in a minute
