Just 25 minutes after starting your mites thread you post a picture and the following:
I guess I'm just sort of at a loss. You seemed defensive even before anybody suggested there was no spider in your snake. What I saw were people trying to help you, even going so far as offering comparison pictures, in getting the genetics of your animal straightened out. I fail to see where you were treated any way that would make you feel humiliated.
I doubt anybody here thinks you stupid or naive for getting genetics mixed up on a snake - pretty sure MOST of us have done it at one point or another.
Best of luck with your snake and glad Brian could help you where we could not.
If it makes you feel better, I'll say I humiliated myself. Because that's the truth. Better? I'm not denying that either. Lol, I said I looked a "damn fool". Like calling an apple an orange, but I was calling a banana a spider.
