I am likely worrying for nothing but it is better to be safe then sorry.

Our new baby arrived to us in Montana from Florida on Tuesday early afternoon. He was born 9/11/13 and was roughly 150 grams on arrival.

He was supposed to be a morning delivery, but fedex was a little late and the box and the snake felt pretty cool when opened.

We put him into his enclosure and he went right for the hotspot balled up and stayed there for about 1/2 an hour. He then explored the entire tub and went back to the hotspot. Later that evening he moved to the cool side and stayed there.

When we woke up yesterday (day 2) he was in the hide on the cool side and has not come out since. We handled him minimally on Tuesday (arrival day) and not at all since. I did finally have my husband raise the hide and touch him this morning just to make sure he was alive. He was.

Our ambient temps on the hot side are about 85 degrees and the surface is 91 degrees.

Ambient temps on the cool side are 81 degrees and the surface is about 79 degrees.

Humidity has been holding pretty steady at 55%
