I never rely on touch for temperature. Get a thermostat. I use 25.00 ones from amazon. Snakes are living breathing things I will never take that chance again.

If they are spending time on cool side then its too hot. Do you have the uth on a thermostat? If not get one for them asap. (Made that mistake) they get hot hot. Also I recommend either a digital thermostat with hygrometer (Walmart 10.00 in outdoor thermometer aisle) or a temp gun. Check your...

How old is he? Here's the thing, too many attempts can stress him out worse. Did you give him an adjustment period for about a week or two first? If not, do so. No holding, change water, spot clean that's it.

I work 4pm to 12am. I also have kids up during the day. My lights are on from 2pm to 2 am. Mine don't even wake up until like 4-6pm. Lol. I spend time with mine from time I get home to 2am. Try timers if you won't be there to turn on.

Do you have other snakes? If so, I always give it to another. If not, set up like a 10 gallon aquarium, lid (no heat needed) with a dripper, food and save it for later. Just set it up with a good smelling bedding, or in a room you don't enter often.

We did try to put him in a bin. It was a colored one so he wouldn't feel threatened we put lid on top of it a tad crooked. He tailwhipped the entire time. Didn't even touch the food. I gave up put him back in enclosure to feed after 20 minutes of that. Didn't want him to be hungry. I can try it...
