I just got my first ball python this weekend and so far everything seems to be going well. I noticed that he had pooped, and went to go and clean it out of his tub. That's when I noticed that his uth wasn't sticking to the bottom of his tub correctly. Since the uth has a sticky side, I didn't bother taping it on when I originally set up his tub and assumed it would be fine.

I'd like to tape it on so that it's attached properly, but in order to do that I'd have to take him out of the tub, which I know you aren't supposed to do for the first week. I live in FL so the weather here is generally very warm -- his ambient temperature usually sits in the 80's. Would it be better to wait out the week until he's more adjusted, or should I take him out and fix the problem tonight?
