Gratz on your bp. I just got a new baby pastel bp sunday, he looked hungry and roamed his tub so i decided to feed him, and he ate it first try. Glad yours ate and is doing good.

Just let it settle in and make sure your temperature and humidity at the right levels. Just make sure you monitor any live rodent around your BP. If it doesn't feed just try again next week or next scheduled feeding date. It's very common for new snakes to reject food after being introduced to a new environment. Just let it settle in.

rom temp 81 and the heat pad im not sure

I suggest you get a temp where your heating pad is. Some pads can get up to 115 degrees and burn the snake. Other then that congrats on him eating. My first ball also ate today. It was a really cool experience.
