Hi!

"OK. I have written 3 different boards about this and I haven't had any success..."

See! You just had to come to the right forum. Ha! Ha! Seriously, though; I'm glad to hear she finally ate on her own. However, I doubt that she's out of the woods, yet - meaning that I suspect she's not completely OK now.

This - "She had mites....., ....can't even shed properly because she is too skinny." tells me that she's most likely dehydrated. Whether a snake is skinny, normal or fat, doesn't affect it's ability to shed. Mites, lack of humidity and body fluids, will.

If you'll give a good description of your setup (size, heat source, etc...) and it's actual temperatures & humidity levels we'll try to help you make it the best it can be so your albino Burmese Python can live to be the best it can be.

Have a good one!
HH
