    I definitely agree that you need to double check the temps. If the glass is registering above 88, that can be a burn hazard. That will need to be fixed. The substrate can always be moved and the snake can contact the glass and injure itself.

    I honestly think the whole problem is food however.
    How much does your snake weigh? How much does the food weigh? Ideally you need to be feeding around 10% of your snake's body weight. At 4 months, I feel like a hopper mouse(?) Is way too small. That will make them restless and keep looking for more.
    I have a month old BP that is eating small mice. Hopers are only fed to hatchlings for a couple of meals.
