Covering up the tank for a while is a good idea. It'll give the baby some security. Don't handle him for a couple of weeks (definitely not until after he eats). If he refuses food the first time it is offered, try again in a few days. And do not handle for at least two days after feedings so he can digest his food properly.
I honestly have no idea what the temps/humidity are. she is using a heat pad and its a 10 gal, but she only has one hide on the warm side, and she doesnt have anything to measure humidity or temperature. also she does not have a thermostat. I have tried numerous times to help her with those details, but since I havent had snakes as long as her, she just gets snippy about it. in her other ball pythons' tanks she has dial thermometers/hygrometers and only one hide per tank....
