Humidity disagreements & BP activity

[EthanMG]

I know different kinds of snakes require different humidity levels but I don't think different individual ball pythons require different humidity levels. All ball pythons need a certain range but some ball pythons are more sensitive to developing problems because of incorrect temperature than others. Maybe it's just the picture but are your ball python's eyes blue? Typically that means they are about to shed unless the morph was born with blue eyes like a blue eyed lucy.

Mites will look like tiny black or red dots typically first noticed around the eye or corners of the mouth and heat pits. If you run your hand along the whole snake's body and look at you hand you might see one or two on your hand if they are on the body of the snake.

Yeah, that’s just the color of his eyes. That picture was from about a week ago and he hasn’t shed yet. When I handled him I did rub across to check for mites and didn’t see any on my hand. Also don’t see any in the pictures. Do you think it’s maybe just his personality to hang around his water and moss. It’s not 24/7 he still explores around and climbs, but after exploring for like 2 minutes he’ll chill slithering around/in/by his water for 5 minutes then go to exploring for short period of time then go bss as I to water for longer and just repeat that cycle all night. Thanks for clarifying the correct humidity. I use Forrest floor and reptibark right now.
