The environment outside of your snakes cage is neither the ideal temperature or humidity, and it's not the greatest to keep them out for hours at a time right off the bat.

When you say "mine are fine", do you mind noting what yours is? You'll need to soak the snake and probably give it a bit of extra humidity in the enclosure for a while to ensure it completes its shed properly and that it is in good shape to continue.

Thanks everyone for the info it's very helpful, he just ate an adult mouse about 10 minutes ago without hesitation but he was pretty quick after it so I'm guessing the last owner didn't feed him a whole lot.. I'll try to post a video of it today.
