I have a question just got my new Ball, and I want to make sure I prevent all these things. How does a snake contract Mouth Rot, and or Mites. My ball is very healthy now and has netiher and I would love to keep it that way. Thanks for the replys.
To prevent mites just don't handle outside snakes (or even be near) and handle your own unless you change and shower. For moth rot, keep your husbandry up and keep your snake healthy maybe feed frozen to prevent damage

0.0.1 Anery Cornsnake---> Sable
I have no fear of losing my life - if I have to save a koala or a crocodile or a kangaroo or a snake, mate, I will save it.
