Hey everyone,
Ok so I posted some questions last night pertaining to my Hogg Island that I just bought . . .
This morning at around 4 am, I heard some thrashing in her cage. When I turned on the light, the snake was still in her water dish and thrashing around, sort of rubbing her face on the vents in the cage and even turning upside down a few times. I am very worried.
Is this still an indication of mites? The pet store says that my temps are too warm but I have checked them several times and they are b/w 85-88F on the warm side. She has been in her water dish since I bought her last night. The pet store wants me to bring her in so they can look at her but it is an hour drive at least, so therefore kind of a hassle. What do you guys think?

Problems with the new Hogg Island

To look for in the water bowl is little black dot's. If your snake has mite's and is soaking in the water bowl you will see dead mite's in the bottom of the water bowl. And your high temp's are ok just make sure you got a cool end at 78 degree's. Paper Towel's are the best for now, till you find out on the mite's. Also make sure your snake has a hide box. Any more question's just ask !
Have A Good One ! !
