    hey guys.
    yeah so i spent most of my day after talking to you guys about my bp resetting his tank in a regular 20 gal. i did the whole tinfoil and tape cover thing and i provided 2 hides on each side and have Rainforest exo terra heat pad on him and a 75 watt red bulb on him. the humidity is staying now at a constant rate of 65. I'm waiting to buy a digi thermo/hydro. and i used that substrate thats in sticky's tutorial. When i switched the snake in the 20 gal he checked everything out then went in his hide cave on the hot side. i think things are okay especially since the humidity level is looking real good. what are maybe some possible things i should keep an eye on in the meantime?

    Roaming occasionally is OK but roaming 24-7 is not.

    They tend to roam the cage a lot when they are in new places or if something is off in the enclosure, temperature or humidity-wise.

    So, if he's been staying in his hide, he's at least comfortable for now. Lay off the handling for about a week and don't disturb him while he settles in. If you can keep your hands off of him and he's warm, I bet he'll eat for you in a couple of weeks without a problem.
