Thank you so much for the responses!! I did check for mites/ticks before putting him in the enclosure.. I had him in a white Tupperware tub so I could see if any fell off too. He looks clear. I am thinking of keeping him, I have a ball python and was just looking into getting another snake so this is a happy coincidence. I'll give him a few more days to get adjusted then try feeding- thank you for the advice. He seems to enjoy burrowing instead of using the hides.. I'll keep adjusting the tank to try and make him more comfortable!
