Craiga I owe you one heck of an apology. So I went against your advice about when to feed because he was acting like he would eat so I went ahead and heated up of those small mice. He grabbed it immediately and ate it head to tail like a champ. Thank you so much and I’m sorry I didn’t believe you. �� I’m going to weigh him in two days so that I don’t mess with his schedule and stress him out. Should I start feeding him every 5 days?
Hahahahha, no apologies necessary. I'm happy to help.
I'd stick to a 7 day schedule. Definitely give him 7 days after this meal since it's larger than he's used to. Going too fast can lead to a regurgitation, and then you're worse off than before. Be patient, patience is important when keeping snakes.
Thermometer measures temps while thermostat regulates temps.
93 is a bit too high as well. I aim for 88-89, but never above 90.
yes a thermostat. I checked those temperature shortly after setting it all up. They are probably different now. I’ve never used one before though so maybe I’m doing something wrong?

Ok awesome
I don't mean to second guess you, but you'd probably be surprised how often people make that mistake.
Keep an eye on your temps and get them dialed in. You're on the right track
