Mites or Normal Markings?

Can someone please tell me (if you can see it) if these are mites, or just normal black spots on my normal?

I don't think those are mites. It looks like normal pattern markings to me.

Normal pigment.

Agreed, my normal girl has that exact same speckling and color. Shouldn't be anything to worry about :) That heart shape is too cute btw.

They do look like normal markings.

If there were mites, you would most likely notice specks moving around on your snake. You could take a slightly damped paper towel and gently wipe the head and upper neck area, and then check out the paper towel. This will help in noticing the specks (potential mites).

Good to know! I was getting really worried! And yeah, I thought the heart shape was pretty cool too ;)

The best way to check for mites is in the eyes. Mites love to hide in the crevice around the eye. Those markings don't look like mites to me

Or you could run your hand down the snake then look at your hand.

Looks like regular markings.

Agreed, looks normal to me. They get "dirty" as they age, generally.
