It might be a different type of mite. Could also be chiggers. It's hard to tell, might need more description if you can't get a picture, could also do with a general location.

regardless you need to treat your cage for mites. PAM (provent a mite) is an excellent product and one i personally recommend very highly.

when I do a search on ball python mites they're described as red, reddish brown, black

Some snakes do refuse, some do not.
