BP won't go onto warm side, help!
First of all, some basic info:
1. My BP is a fantastic eater.
2. I've had it (unsexed) for 3 weeks.
3. It's ~60 cm/~2 feet
4. Ambient enclosure temp is 30°C, warm side is 31°C, cool side is 28°C.
5. Ambient house temp is 26-32°C throughout the week (fluctuating temps, one of the cons of living in a subtropic region).
So, now that you have some basic info, let me proceed to the problem. Recently I installed a UTH into my BP's enclosure. For the first day after it being installed, hwe wouldn't leave the warm side. The next day, he won't go on it. Two days after that, he actively avoids the warm side. Can anyone help me by telling me why he's avoiding the warm side? I'm just afraid he might digest too slowly for his own good, as I'm aware most snakes use heat to digest food.

Current enclosure (he/she's hiding in the cocoshell)
P.S. Sorry for the long read
