I was more of thinking that thicker scales would be a bit harder for the mites to get in between. Obviously I am not looking for a way of magically making mites disappear, but if I knew of something that helped detour them from swarming albino snakes, it wouldn't hurt in the eradication process.
Surely if it did have any effect on the scales, it would not effect young mites and their ability to get in and feed, but if it makes it harder for the adults, than that would be cool.
Also, lets just pretend for a minute that I had never mentions mites. I still want to know if adding extra beta-keratin to the diet effects their scales in any way, just out of curiosity.
