I just added some artificial leaves and a 2nd snake hide out of cardboard (temporary). What do you guys think?

I can only speak for my little one but he hates bright light. I am not sure if that is an issue but I would assume light of that brightness coupled with no blocking of the sides and back of the tank would be quite stressful indeed.

It's not that bright. It's a poor camera. And the hide on the left is covered on the sides

You're getting there. However, BPs like their hides as tight as possible, almost like a turtle shell. Glad to see you're applying what you're learning, keep up the good work! We'll help you along the way

Re: BP cage setup question
Also what is the best time of day to feed him? I've heard late in the day so should I feed him like an hour before his light goes off? And yes I know to only feed him like once a week.

Feeding at night is best. BPs are nocturnal animals, so most inclined to eat during their typical "awake" hours. I have snakes that will eat any time of day, but until they are well established eaters I always start them out eating at night. Being that I cook for a living I work a fair amount of nights, so I have been lucky and have been able to get away with some daytime feedings.
But, that being said, I would feed at night if your schedule allows. Sometime after 8 or 9 would probably be best.

I try to feed an hour after sundown. When I feed the room is just light enough that I can see the snakes move.
Honest, I only need one more ...
