I did a good 30 min search on him and didnt see anything when i did check on him i saw a very very small whiteish tanish color bug on his log not sure what is was it was 2 far away i hurried to get the log hide out to get a better look and it was gone. are there white tan color mites? the mites my snake had 10 years ago (diff snake) had black mites. I will add some moss to his tank! also TBH i didnt want to put the poor rat in a pillow case but it had a lot of good reviews so i wasnt sure if it was worth trying or not. I have never had a problem with snakes eating rats before so like i said i dont think its from them.
