You're keeping his tank pretty darn cold. You want the warm side to stay around 90-92 and the cool side can get to 70, but it's best to keep it closer to 75. I like my cool side in my hatchling/subadult racks to stay closer to 80.

They are always trying to escape, I don't think they ever stop, at least not at night or when disturbed.

They can't digest food without heat.

And lastly, their bites aren't bad. Being bit by a kitten is much worse. Their bite will startle you though!
