Thanks cypher, I've been to the vet with her because when I was moving her to a clean temporary cage I noticed some white and black dots on her. Turns out it wasn't on her just on the tank and all over the room I have her in.
The mites were severely attacked with bleach and hot water last night but came back today, not in the large number they were but still a reasonable number. I've been searching and it's grain mites, I've sprayed them now with a mix of water and vinegar let's wait and see.
Alice has a respiratory infection though 😔 but the vet already gave me meds and I have to keep an eye on her. I have her in a clean cage in another room. She seems a bit stressed cause the cage is so small, the bedding is new, no wheel. It's her travel cage but I don't have anything else. I'm feeling like a monster but it's for her own good. I hope she gets well.
