Following up with my last post, I've been seeing my baby ball python trying to swim in his water dish. I did inspect him for mites but I didn't see anything on his chin, in his eye, or in his scales. He does have black spec like scales, but when I ran my finger across them they were smooth. It seems that Russos also have those kinds of markings. There was nothing in his water bowl except a fuzzy and a tiny tiny red oval thing. But I did not have a magnifying glass to inspect it. He's been in his water bowl 2 or 3 times already this morning. I'll look into getting mite spray today if I can.
But what could be going on with him?
