I don't think I would pay for a snake with mites, just me though. Hope you got a killer deal. She is very pretty though.


Please excuse any errors sent from my crap phone.

Thank you.

I've dealt with mites before so they don't seem like a huge deal to me. At least this time I knew to expect them (the owner did warn me before hand) so I don't need to treat my boa that is also in QT because I was able to QT her separately.

Shes beautiful!!

Thank you.

The mites aren't cool, but she's a beautiful animal

Thank you.

Mites are horrible but other than that she is in great condition so it seams like a small price to pay. At least mites are fairly easy to treat.

She's gorgeous! I hope you are able to get rid if those mites quickly.

Thank you.

I hope I am able to wipe them out quickly. Last time I treated for mites when I had an out break in my QT rack it only took one treatment. I soaked her to kill the ones on her and sprayed her cage down with prevent-a-mite. I will spray again in a few weeks but that should take care of the problem.

how much (if you don't mind) did you get her for? can pm me if you don't want to post.

PM sent.

She has some awesome whites!

Thank you.

She is even more impressive in person. I love that she is a high white, high yellow bee. I couldn't ask for more.

Wow.. I'm in love with her coloring! What morph is she? Congrats!

Thank you.

She is a bumble bee (pastel spider).

Killer Bee? She is gorgeous .. mites are cureable.

Thank you.

I don't think she is a killer bee, I think she is just a really nice bee. You're right, mites are cureable and she's nice enough that it doesn't feel like a bother to deal with them.

She looks great!

Thank you.

Nice bee. Don't know that I would have brought home an animals knowing it had mites, there are so many other healthy animals our there. Yes they are easy to treat, but why knowingly bring that in? No thanks.

She is nice and mites are easy to get rid of on one snake. I always do two treatments just to make sure there are none left behind. It only takes one to cause alot of trouble.

I really hate mites, but given what I paid for her and that I knew in advance it doesn't seem like a big deal. I wouldn't really call her unhealthy either. She has mites, it's not like she has 10 layers of stuck shed, severely under weight and has an RI like some craigslist pickups are. Her previous owner seemed to genuinely care for his collection but he had to let them go because of a short notice move and his new place wouldn't let him have the snakes.

Honestly you run the risk of snake mites with every new addition you pick up. The last time I had to treat for mites was in QT rack and they came in from a snake that I got from a highly reputable breeder. It was a nightmare treating the 8 snakes in my QT rack and what made it worse was the snake that brought them in was only in my possession for less than 36 hours because I sent her back for a refund because she had a major kink that wasn't obvious in the breeders photos of her and they didn't disclose that information before hand. I would much rather know in advance that a snake will be coming in with mites than end up with mites in a QT collection because the "healthy" snake a breeder sent me had them.

You are right, treating one snake isn't that bad. I plan to do at least one more treatment to be sure because having one survive and infesting my collection when I move her out of QT would suck. One snake isn't bad, but 30+ would be pretty horrible. >_<

[SlitherinSisters]

She is pretty and big! I hope the mites are an easy fix!

[loonunit]

Yeah, I'd buy that bee, mites and all.

(Just make sure your QT is good and far from the rest of your collection? Stupid mites have legs...)

Lol, I'm glad someone agrees with me. She's a really nice bee.

She's in a different room, but it's still on the same floor. When I dealt with mites last time being in a different room was enough to protect my collection, I hope that's enough this time.

[zach_24_90]

Yeah if you for a low price... Mites are a non factor in my opinion lol a little PAM in the bin and they will be gone within a week lol
