Thermostat probe placement in my tank?

[Snow Balls]

I don't care if he's active or not I just care about him potentially hurting himself while climbing the walls, squeezeing through anything and trying to squish hinself through tiny gaps trying to get out of the enclosure.
I have studied about ball python keeping for over a year before getting him and now I am experiencing polar opposites of what I have learned about ball pythons and seen about them from other keepers I followed.
Bp's are pet rocks, you won't see them much at all, always hiding. He is very active all night. BP's are chill, he is jumpy and skittish.
BP's don't eat well and skip many meals, he is constantly hungry and looking for food (not complaining about this one).
So forgive me that I am pretty much confused and want to find any problems that could lead to him being so "different".
Different personalitys are a thing I am aware. But when everyone says they naturally act a certain way, then mine acts that different, I get worried about my animal. And I don't quite believe yet that I was "blessed" with a ball python that is the odd one out.

Ball pythons are not literal “pet rocks” people say that because you will hardly see them during the day because they will be hiding. They’re nocturnal so they ARE active at night, thus the term “pet rock” because when you are awake they are asleep and vise versa. He will not hurt himself climbing walls or trying to squeeze into places because he won’t even be able to get his snout into your cage sliding door. He’s jumpy because he is I assume a hatchling, you are hundreds of times bigger than he is. If you were constantly being watched and observed by a giant I’m sure you would be jumpy too. When people say “they don’t eat well and skip meals” because that’s what adult ball pythons do. Hatchlings should be automatic with feeding and rarely refuse food. They don’t start getting spotty with feeding until they hit their 1000g wall. Your Ball Python is NOT acting any different from anyone else’s Ball Python
