Hello BP forums!

First off I would like to say in advance thank you for all the advice and tips. All of my questions and pressing matters have already been addressed, so thank you all for that! And a special thank you to SilentHill who was answering my questions in the front page while waiting for my account to register!

Anyway, first time snake owner here. I always wanted one and about two months ago I decided to get one. So I did my research, got a terrarium and my supply list, and made sure the temperature and settings were good. Then once all that was done, I decided to get one. I ended up getting a Blue Eyed Leucitic (fell in love with them) who I have named Luna. Luna is female and she is two months old now. I ordered her from an online website that is near to me, who had good ratings and reviews.

She got home on the 14th, and seems to be doing well. I am still a bit nervous, being a first timer and all. So I would like to post my information about her so far just so people can point out anything that might cause issues down the road.

I cant post pictures right now (I'm at work), but I can post some if needed.

Terrarium setup -
A 40 gallon glass tank, that I divided into two with a removable wall. So her space is roughly 20 gallons, and I use the unused space for extra storage.
Her hot side is 90F, and her cold side is 80F. Both are under tank heaters, controlled with a sensor and thermostat.
Her humidity is a constant 50-60. I had problems at first, but I got a clear plastic vinyl sheet to go over it. (the same kind that goes on desks to protect them.) I then put holes in it. Ever sense then No humidity issues. If it creeps up past 65, I just open the top a little bit and it creeps back down.
My only worry is her air temperature, its usually between 71-73F. I rent the lowest floor of a house, and its partially sub-grade. I haven't noticed any issues yet, but what can I do to raise the air temperature if that's needed? I read you can use heat lamps with the ceramic bulbs, but how would you control the temperature? I don't think you could really use the same sensor and thermostat setup , so any guidance here would be appreciated.
She has two hides, one on the hot side and one on the cold.
She has a heavy water bowl which I change out every day or every other day.
I use the Zoo Med coconut fiber substrate. (I went with that because I was having humidity problems to start, and read that holds the moisture better.)

I think that's it as far as Terrarium setup goes?

Feeding-
Luna has refused two frozen/thawed fuzzies. Both were heated up in 105 degree water (in a plastic baggie) until the mouse was 90+. Then i hit it with a hair drier and offered it to her using feeder tongs. (And I did try to mimic movement both times,) but Luna wasn't having it. She wasn't interested, at all. The second time I offered a Fuzzy I read up on "braining" them, so I snipped open the top with utility scissors, and even then no luck.
However she did accept a live fuzzy on the 25th, which I was very happy about. I would like to get her on frozen/thawed, but right now I'm just happy she ate something. I plan on offering her more live feeders until shes eating constantly, then try to convert her over to frozen/thawed at a later date.
I did contact the Breeder and She said that Luna ate both live and frozen, but she has yet to accept a Frozen/thawed from me. But for right now, I am just happy she ate. We will see again on Sunday I guess!

Her next feed day will be the 31st.

Shedding -
Luna had her first successful shed. It came off in one whole piece, I checked her to make sure there were no eye caps or skin tags and so on. No issues there so happy snake mommy!

Handling -
I have only handled her 3 times sense she got home. I inspected her when she first arrived to make sure she looked happy and healthy. Then for her first feeding I tried to move her to a separate Tub. (it didn't work, that was one of the refused frozen/thawed). Then I handled her when she finished shedding about a week ago, checked for problems or issues. There were none so I put her back. All 3 handling's were brief, under 5-10 minutes.

Behavior -
She spent most of the two weeks hiding in her hot hide pretty much 24/7. I did catch her under her water bowl twice, and did catch her drinking and yawning. She is still a very shy girl! Anytime she sees me she freezes, and then moves to hide when I am out of sight.

Though last night when I got home it was completely different. (I basically got a show) Luna was playing in her plastic plants, generally crawling around, tongue flickering. Wrapping around her water bowl, trying to explore around. She even rested against the glass in plain view for about an hour. She still hid if she saw me though. Later in the evening I caught her playing "peek a boo" by raising her head to look at me, and would keep looking until I looked back, then she would creep back down again. But soon as I looked back to the TV, up her head would slowly pop again. It was pretty cute honestly.

Anyway, she was pretty active last night in the evening. This morning she was back to hiding under her water bowl with just her nosetip peeking out.

And that's it I think? I think I have a pretty good start on things. My only two bumps are the frozen/thawed, and the ambient air temperature. I am not planning on trying to get her on frozen now, until shes consistently eating. As far as the Ambient Air temp well, I'm not sure if 71-73 range is too cold, and how to fix it if it is.

Thank you all for the advice already, and I do hope my settings and snek care has been up to par. As I said I am still learning things. I can't wait until shes calmed down and relaxed enough to trust me. No idea how long that usually takes, as you guys mentioned every snake is different. so just got to be patient I guess!

Thanks Bunches!
