    Well I'm...disheartened. I thought I was doing at least most things right. I know I'm a beginner, but I'm doing my best to perfect my husbandry. While I wouldn't rehome Asriel because I love this lil beep so much, maybe I should've stuck with small, furry creatures.
    craig said it the best. You're SO close! A tub is an amazing idea, very inexpensive and easy to get ahold of. I strongly recommend getting something other than that tall enclosure. Tubs are not the prettiest, but it'll certainly do! When I got my first ball python (my first snake and reptile ever!), I thought his temps and setup were perfect! Boy was I wrong But everything was fixed in about a week, and he's just fine!
    Never give up! I got so frustrated in fixing my snakes enclosures, but it was so worth it. Everyone's happy and healthy now! I think you should run to Home Depot or some other similar store near you, and get something like this https://www.homedepot.com/p/Sterilit...8006/20672148y It's cheap and easy to set up. I have my crested geckos in something similar, and they do great! This way you can "restart", but not break your bank buying a new tank! Though, If you want a glass tank (I know how pretty they are) I would recommend catching the $1 a gallon sale at PetSmart (or Petco... idk one of the two lol).
    In short, don't give up! And think about Asriel. You can correct his temps and set up! It might take a little bit, but you know where we are
