That sounds pretty good for now. I doubt he will bite you though. Especially if he is curled in a ball. If it makes you feel better you can wear gloves while handling him. Ball python bites are really nothing big. Barely even bleed. I have had worse from my kitten or dog!
okay, then I'm going to try a snake transplant tomorrow!
You are doing a great job! There's a lot to learn in a short time. Heat and humidity are all you need to worry about right now. It is important that the two ends of the tank are two different temps. 90 warm end and 80 cool end is ideal.
You could just slide the tank off the end of the table just a bit so the heater is underneath about a foot or so of one end of the tank. And tape some dark paper to a couple of sides of the tank for security.

Keep up the good work!
thanks! I did what you suggested and turned on it's side and scooted it a little off the desk, but not too much. Hope that helps!
