I checked on my ball today and i found this in his hide. He is an import so theres no telling. Ive found ticks on him so far...2. I just stripped his cage down and sprayed it and all cage furniture with provent a mite. I havent noticed any mites. I have noticed some signs of scale rot but he is about to go into shed. He also is not eating like he normally does. Of course that could be from being in a new enclosure and/or about to shed. He is less then a year old. Still looks good. I keep his cage clean and temps and humidity right.

What concerns me are the things in these pics. If you have any idea please let me know. Thanks
