Thanks for the advice. I truly don't think i have the heart to take him back. Here is a pick of my set up. I have a heat pad on a timer under the tank and i also have a heat lamp that i use when needed. I have actually been debating on purchasing a larger tank. I don't think the girl at the pet store really gave me the right advice on tank sizes. This one is 20" x 10" x 13". I was thinking of upgrading to a tank around twice the size so i have room to add more hides. I will definitely try the newspaper trick. So, after how many weeks of not eating should i start to worry? From what i have read, young snakes usually eat pretty frequently. He doesn't seem to be losing weight though.

If this image doesn't show up, i will try again. I have never posted an image before lol and this doesn't seem to be working.
