New BP and tub temps.

[vivi]

Hot side reads 53% humidity and 78f temp.

There´s your problem. Your UTH is not set hot enough. It needs to be at 90-92f. Your hotspot is not ¨fine.¨

I must also note you SHOULD HAVE WAITED before getting this ball python because all you are doing is creating more stress for it. Always have your husbandry dialed in before getting a reptile. But your BP cannot thermoregulate since there is only a ONE DEGREE DIFFERENCE between the hotspot and cold side. Being able to thermoregulate is a NECESSITY.

I also would not recommend a 60qt tub as a permanent enclosure.
