SherriX2, how are you keeping humdity in the screen top cage? I have one baby red tail in a 20gal glass terrarium with screen top, but living in AZ gives me next to no humidity so I have put layers of tin foil down on the top of the screen top and taped it up with black duct tape, its worked great for me (I think there is a link somewhere on here where I found out how to do that, but I cannot find it right now). Aspen bedding is another great way to keep humidity up in the cage (I do not use it for my larger boas because of how large their cages are, but I use it on my baby boas/pythons), I just use a spray bottle and spray my little red tails cage every couple of days and it keeps humidity at the right level.

If you found mites on the snake, there will be more where that came from. I would suggest buying some Provent-A-Mite online, I had a big mite problem with my rescue boa but after getting Provent-A-Mite I haven't had any problems. I've tried some other mite relief products from Pet Co. and neither of them worked for me.

Thats great that he is eating! I can't tell from the pictures but the snake does not look dehydrated to me.. I've seen a snake that was dehydrated once and its eyes kind of dipped in somewhat - but there could always be something I'm not seeing

The only other thing I would suggest if covering up 2-3 sides of the glass with newspaper to give the little guy some security while hes getting settled in.
