Thanks so much for the reply. To clarify, while the shop called the mouse a fuzzy, by everything I see online, it was a hopper. So whatever he ate at the shop, presumably hoppers, and then the two hoppers he took at my home (well, 1.5 perhaps if I cross my fingers that he digested the majority of the mouse that didn't come up). That was why I considered stepping down to a fuzzy for the next feed, since several of the posts and topics I read suggested stepping down a size for the next feeding.

To clarify on your specific temperatures, when you say hot side and cool side, do you mean ground temperature? I ask because you also specify only a single ambient, so I'm reading that as suggesting 80-84 for the enclosure's air temperature with ground 78-80 on the cool and 86-89 on the warm side. Correct me if I'm reading incorrectly.

For temperature control, the room is individually controlled and at 72 outside the enclosure, I can obviously bring that up as necessary. The UTH is on an Inkbird set to 90 degrees but as mentioned, that's not the temperature on top of substrate. I didn't go any higher on the UTH in case he burrows and contacts the bottom.
