new bp how to feed! help

ive checked hot area with a infared gun now and the surface temp of the hot area is 89.8 how do heat this up to ur specified heat i currently have a heat mat with about 1 cm of wood chips on top.

89*F is good for the hot side. make sure the coldside is no lower then 80*F surface temp. and ambient air temp in the enclosurei s 80*F.

can you snap a photo of the setup? if she feels unsafe in it she wouldnt refuse food as well.

ive just checked the hot area again with a infared gun and the serface temp is 89.8 how do i rase the temp im currently using a heat mat with just under an inch of chips.

ill try to get a pic the set up is exactly as the shop sold her she seems calm shes out and about and is happy to come on to my hands n crawl about nice n slow no ball .

What type of mouse babies? Pinkies? Fuzzys? Hoppers?

Baby ball pythons generally can eat small adult mice right out of the egg. Try a small adult mouse ( Something that moves, with fur) and i bet your snake will eat.

Not all ball pythons take frozen thawed prey right off the bat, and pinkies are far too small of a meal.
