Try f/t if you want but if he doesn't eat, would get a live mouse for the following week. He will not die, he will not starve. Don't worry about the humidity, don't worry about the temps. Just check on him once a day or so to make sure he is alive (without touching him or moving him or his hides).

    A stressed snake will often "lay out" in between objects in the cage. This is just a normal new ball python behavior. Sometime in the next week he will discover that his hides and his home are safe, and he will use his hides.

    Quit worrying and relax!! He isn't an infant, he doesn't need to be watched over 24/7. He will be just fine
    lol he knows he has hides he used em for a day . Well imma leave it like it is. Both humidity are 50-55 so i think thats fine.

    UTH 91-93

    Cage temp hot is 81-85 cool is 79-82

    So if all that is fine i will leave the little guy be

    And u guys was right the humidity does go down over time seems to get lower and lower lol
