    Good good. I'd still unplug the heat mat for now. Those things can get really hot if left unmonitored.

    I assume he has been eating regularly?

    Oh I also think getting his enclosure away from the door will help with your temps.

    They are rather small mice/frozen but they aren't to small, it is one size up from what the pet store feeds them

    Don't be afraid to bump up your feeder size. Most babies are started on small adult mice and move up quickly. They can eat a much bigger meal than you might think lol. Mouse/rat should be about the same thickness as the thickest part of your snakes body.
