Shedding

Recently when I've been handling my Childrens Python I have been feeling some scales that aren't smooth, they seem to be coming loose. Not alot are doing this just about 6 or so. A little more information on this subject would be handy.

It just feels like the scale has come loose. When I got him out today I didn't feel any.

Might be when ya pick him up those scales are hanging on somthing causing them to stick up.. And if they do it alot and you can see under them see the little black dots they could be mites too.
