Re: SI boa holding breath underwater?
its ok to hash out old posts and hogs are known for burying themselves so i would worry to much about that mites on the other hand if they are bad youll see them crawling around on your hands after handleing if not i would check where dr. del was suggesting

Re: SI boa holding breath underwater?
lol yes I did, but I was hoping that someone would still answer my question. It worked and to answer your question earlier, yes there is sorta black stuff in the water bowl almost every time i clean it...I didn't think anything of it.

Would it matter if I treated Kojack (my snake) for mites even if he didn't have them just to be sure?

Yes, many people know that Hoggers burrow but no one knows that "Pig Faces" (I love that nickname ) stay under gapless substrate for hours unless they('ve) keep/kept them or unless they've read this thread.

My snakes:
0.1 Kenyan Sand Boa ~Nephthys~ (aka "Linky")
In a better place: 1.0 Pastel Western Hognose ~Charon~ 10/3/07-4/24/09
If you need/want to know anything about Hognose snakes, just ask me.

i would honestly treat all the snakes you own and after you clean out each enclouser make sure you wash yourself really well move onto the next cage and just repeat the process of cleaning thier cage and then you cage then you. yea you might wwind up looking like a prune but its for the sake of the snakes
