My Snake is a ball python and it used to have mites but theyre gone now. Does that cause a problem?

What's the humidity in your cage like?

The Humidity is usually from 40% to 60%.

That sounds a bit low for a python to be shedding in. Make sure he has a humid area to go to when he's blue- or even all the time. 40% is pretty low.
