Another newbie with questions..

Hi,

I generally feed hatchlings every 5-7 days. Some move over to F/T fairly easily while some can be really reluctant.

I'd say try it but remember to get the prey up to a good temp to stimulate them - I heat the head with a hair dryer.

The one thing you didn't mention though was a thermostat - those regulate the heat pads and prevent them reaching dangerous temperatures. They are probably the most important pieces of equipment you need to keep reptiles well.

This is a good place to start.
