Was going to look at your pics but the link did not show up. Def give the snake some time to settle before you try to feed it or mess with it. It sounds like you kinda have the idea. I have my guy in a 55 gal tank I think I might still have pics of it on here but my cool side stays between like 65 and 75 my hot side depending on the weather outside stays 79-84 most days. I battle with my humidity I went and bought some moss I think from LLL reptile and it helps but you have to keep it damp. Def help when he is in shed
