As far as dealing with adult BP's vs juveniles I have found that my adults are hands down much pickier and generally more of a pain in the a&* when it comes to feeding.. The juveniles will typically eat every single time.. Right now I think its all about having him in the proper sized cage and go from there..

Good luck.. Keep us updated...
I appreciate your input.

See, I worked in a museum as an educator for a while, and the ball python they had was about 7-8 years old, a male. He was the most chill snake I've ever met. Happily ate 1-2 large mice a week, with a public audience, in a glass tank. He was used regularly in 20 minute educational programs that involved children. Other than that, he spent all day sleeping, and if you took him out, he'd sleep on your lap. Or..well, he still does.

So, that's what I was used to

Otherwise...I have a 3 year old bearded dragon that I raised from 2 months of age. I exposed her all varieties in color and type of vegetables, as well as insects as a juvenile. She ate all of them, but as soon as she hit adulthood she became almost defiant picky.

I'm just hoping you're right and he settles in nicely. Thank you
