We discovered Olivia had brought along some stowaways. Mites. Lots of 'em. Total bummer, but we're thrilled we had her QT tub far away from our BP rack, our BRBs, and our beloved rescues -- a BCI and Hog Island.
Olivia has been perfectly lovely throughout the de-miting process and the PAM is working like a charm. Her personality is incredibly sweet, but cautious. She has shown zero nippiness even with the discomfort of the mites. I think it's safe to say that Olivia is rapidly becoming one of my favorites. <3
We snapped this cute picture of Olivia watching her own back after her soak this morning.

Re: Olivia the Pig
Sucks about the mites! At least it's a pretty easy to solve problem. She's a really good lookin' gal.

Yeah. We're definitely glad it's an easy problem to fix and that it seems to be contained to only Olivia's room. Our housemate's rescue boa (gorgeous, but awfully shy hypo-cyclone BCI, Bonnie) came with mites, so we're all well-versed in quarantining and in the PAM and Reptile Relief procedures.

Re: Olivia the Pig
Congrats on the new baby! Bloods are so gorgeous.
Be sure to tell whomever you bought her from that she came with mites, if you haven't already.

Re: Olivia the Pig
We did. Never fun news to receive, I'm sure. "Hey, dude, check your house for mites..."

Ah! Mites are the worst, that sucks. I had a boa come in with them and spread them around when my borneos were babies and they were not at all impressed with bath time, striking all over.
