Also, it turns out that my old UTH had badly malfunctioned. Really glad that I replaced it now. Yikes.
She's much happier now, and has perked up now that she's being kept at the right temperature and had a snack.
This is her current setup for her recovery, my next step (Besides the vet) is putting a backing on the back and sides of the tank so she has more privacy. That should be done later today!
Thank you guys for your help thus far, Basilisk will be a much happier noodle soon
so so so so proud of you. you're obviously dedicated to your baby and seeing your changes makes me happy.
is this a temporary setup? beeps like to have two identical hides so they can regulate at ease and not have to choose security over regulation.
you're well on your way. keep the updates coming.

Getting the husbandry correct takes some investment, time and tinkering... it seems like a bunch of work at first. once your setup is good (temperature control, humidity control, hiding spots, feeding, etc.). then it becomes like clockwork and caring for the snake is easy.
You've come to the right place. Your homework is to read through the Husbandry section of the forum for 20 minutes daily, minimum. I leaned a ginormous amount reading pages and pages from the husbandry forum section.

Update on the noodle
Yep, this is a temporary setup. She'll be getting a bigger tank in the next year or so, and a second hide in the next couple weeks. I did my research right this time, and I'm gonna use this site to make sure I'm doing the best I possible can to keep her healthy and happy!

Way too go! Man, if I hadn’t found this place, I would have one unhappy beep on my hands! Research is sooo important, and there’s nowhere better to learn than here!

Another noodle update
I booked a vet appointment, sadly the soonest they could see me was next week on Friday..but i'm keeping the paper towels clean and making sure that they are switched out frequently, and spraying her burn with Vetericyn twice a day.
Does Vetericyn work effectively? It was recommended to me by another snake owner, and he said it keeps bacteria out of the wound? But I don't think it's doing much
(It's only been a week tho)

Vetericyn is an antiseptic that works well on snakes because unlike Triple or Neosporin it's a water-based gel rather than a petroleum-based ointment. The ointments can cause scales to slough off.
You can get silvadine online at https://www.mountainside-medical.com/ without a prescription and it will likely show up before the vet appointment if you order tonight. It will be cheaper from there than from the vet as well.
