    Try feeding if you want...Just don't be upset if it doesn't eat.

    I always try to feed the day I get them...Most eat too!

    Im sure he will eat, apparently hes a pimp at eating. Im just concerned less that stable temps could stress the lil guy out.
    Man he really is tiny! Awesome

    As I said before, just hold off until you can provide stable temps he isn't starving so better safe than sorry

    Yeah i agree, im much to caution with my first snake, let alone a cute lil baby male (had him "checked" and hes deff. Male hazaahh)

    So merchant, the only one anyone in town apparently has iis a 3 setting dimmer... should i just get that, see what the low settings are. Anyone have experience with a 3 tap dimmer (3 settings)

    not sure... worth a try (just not with your snake in the tub at the time)

    It wouldn't be too hard to wire up a dimmer (the wall light switch kind)

    all it would take is a heavy duty extension cord (that you are willing to cut)

    Wire strippers

    and the dimmer

    (possibly a screw driver)

    if it gets to this point send me a PM and I will show you how to wire it.
