Ball python not eating

There is no point putting a UTH on the side the heat will just radiate forwards then upwards .... the UTH has to be underneath .

You should be able to tape the mat on easily enough ( only use tape OUTSIDE of vivs / tanks .)

Maybe even hot-glue the mat in place.

Agreed. Putting it on the side is unfortunately a waste of energy and heat.
The heat mat is there to create a hot spot, not for ambient temps. So putting it on the side of the enclosure will only heat the glass and a few inches in front of it.

Your UTH (Under Tank Heater) should be on the bottom.
