As of Thursday (10-10) I have observed no sign of mites on any of my boas for a full week. I've given everyone who was exposed two additional treatments since then, and I plan to keep all of my boas on plain white paper towels for a few more weeks. If all goes well, I'll finally be getting those pictures up around the 18th.
I've also begun temperature cycling for breeding this year. I'm getting excited! I plan to try four females this season. We'll see what happens. With the amount I've spent in the last 2 months on new boas, rack systems, hooks, mite treatments, and other expenditures, my wife says I'm forbidden to expand further until I have at least one successful litter. I guess that's fair
I've been using this thread to update on the mite situation because these were the snakes who had mites. After I saw mites on the first two, another pair from this group started showing them. It's possible they were transmitted during shipping, given that the five boas were placed in two cloth bags. Three from this group also had retained sheds, and all but one had easily visible skeletal structures. They're doing well now though, eating regularly and taming slowly.
Caught myself rambling there. I'll shut up. Have a good weekend everyone!
