Jackson is being terribly irritable. He has mites and I think he'll be going into shed soon (although his eyes haven't clouded over yet). I haven't been handling him, just moving him to clean the tank (daily, my PAM hasn't arrived yet). Before his last meal (which was around the time I noticed the mites) he was super chill. Now he's being very jumpy and has struck at me several times.
I can understand his being irritable with all his discomfort right now. I was just wondering if anyone else who has had a mite problem has noticed a change in their snakes disposition. Do you think he'll calm down once they are eradicated? Ugh, I hate hate mites. I never want this to happen again.
