2 Male Ball Pythons one with mites

Hi I am getting to male ball pythons today. one is a normale and the other is 50% het albino. i think the normal is the one with mites ( i forgot) the guy said that they are a red mites. are they worse then black mites? also how old would u say they are if they are eating large mice f/t? I already have one male and hope to get a female or 2 soon. I want to prove out that male what is the best way to do so? so for all the questions just really excited


P.S. I have some mite killer already as my snake i currently have had mites and it got rid of them in no time.

I am pretty sure they all "smear" red. It shouldn't be a different kind of mite.

They are probably two years old or more.
