That's not very much info. By looking at the cage, I would cover the sides to start with.

What are the temps on the cool side, warm side, and humidity?

What is the heat source? Are you using a t-stat?

Also ideally since the snake is a baby and new, you really should have 2 hides for him. One on the warm side and one on the cool side. As they get older and more comfortable, you can remove hides and eventually most when they get big don't even use hides like my boas but I still offer them to them as it does add floor space.

As for food, how long is the burm? A hopper might work if he is a very young baby. I start my baby boas on hoppers and upsize as needed. But more than likely, your snake will be able to eat a small adult mouse. My 11 month old boa eats adult mice every 7 days.

Without knowing all the info, there is no way anyone can answer your question. It might be too hot, too cold, too scared or sick.

Also why so much lighting? Don't need that big strip housing AND the dome. Just use one. Nothing wrong with lighting but you don't need to blast it full power in the cage lol.

And also, what was the breeder or whoever you got it from feeding it? How often? Live or F/T? Last time it ate? Most of the time a baby is going to be an eating machine as long as it's requirements are met.

I live in sweden and we use metrix system and I will allways Priorotize my reptiles first.

Ok, well if you have decided then i wish you the best with your new buddy.. I only speak because i want whats best for the snake and you. Coming home with what you thought was a corn snake and its one of the GIANT Snakes in the world is not only a diferent ball game but confuses me as you have a Boa and should have known just by the head shape it wasnt a corn.
Im glad he is not snippy, they sure can be sweet, and there Crazy stong and like to interact with people.
GOOD LUCK. Keep us updated. I'll love seeing pics of him. I remember mine that small. So cute.

Maybe start hanging out at reptile shows and stores !?

Just to increase your odds ..

My burms never used hides... Balls yes, they can hardly survive without them but neither of the Burms I had/have ever wanted them.
But they dont like the Heating lights i know that.

Oddly , I've not had hides in with my Burm , Retic or Boas for ages as they simply didn't use them , they now have sheltered / quieter areas but they all seem confident enough to lie / sleep anywhere they wish .

All my 5 Royals each have two identical XL Exo Terra hides though..
