By the way, I've decided to name my little guy Ippo (which means 1 step in Japanese, also a character from an anime I saw recently), since he seems to like to take things slowly. It also aptly describes my return to herpetoculture.
The first day and night he did nothing but hide in the box at the warm end.
The 2nd night (last night) he came out for a few minutes to take a poop.
Today, he switched to the other hide box, which was a relief because I was worried he was too scared to switch back and forth between the two to regulate his temperature properly.

I'm planning on feeding him tommorow, unless someone would advise I put it off longer to give him more time to acclimatize (He last ate over a week ago on Wednesday)
