I have to say, I had the same thing happen to my ball. No change in feeders. No handling other snakes. No change in bedding. And one day they just popped up. Snake never went in the grass or anything. Wasn't near any of my other snakes. I did finally get rid of them, but I still have NO idea where they came from. I guess its possible that she had one lone mite hiding away somewhere. Then if that lone mite laid some eggs, could have started the infestation. But that's about the best I can think of.
