Not an expert here but since so many others have helped me with parasite IDs I thought I would return the favor...
The pics in the beginning all look like mouse hair.
The only "worm" that you would see at that magnification would be strongyloides. Although the times that I have seen it, they were not moving. Do a search for it on google images and see if they match up.
IMO, the book it self is useless for IDing parasites if you are a newbie, I only use his complementary "reptile parasite identificiation chart and formulary", with color photos. It can be purchased at beanfarm.com.
