No interest in feeding

The enclosure is very big for a BP that size, so are it's hides, hides provide more security if they are snug and the animal barely fits in them, not to mention that your temps and humidity ready are probably off since you are using dial gauges.

Security with an animal that size is the single most important thing, if it does not feel secure it will not eat.

At that size here is what I would do

I would have him in a 6 quarts tub, with aspen bedding and one plastic flower pot saucer for hide, I provide temps no higher then 86/88 on the warm side, wait a week and offer a live hopper.

In the meantime no handling, no messing around.

Once he eats consistently for you at least 3 to 5 feeding you can start handling shortly.

What size flowerpot saucer? I was thinking of having him on cypress mulch because humidity is tough where I live, would that be an option?

6 inches.

The reason I recommend aspen for now is to allow your BP to burrow, it provides additional security which is much needed at this point.

Is mulch hard for them to burrow? I have aspen so ill set that up tonight

I got him a 6 quart tub, filled it with about an inch of Aspen, I put five small holes in it two on one end and three on the other of the top and I was thinking I would house him in the glass enclosure inside the tub for added security since The tub is somewhat transparent.

Is that an okay amount of holes for airflow while I get the tank to the right conditions?

I put leftover black foam board in front for added security
