I can't see your pics, because I'm at work and this computer doesnt always show the images, but as far as your snake basking, or leaving half it's body in the hide and half exposed in under the heat light, sounds like your cages is set up poorly.

It sounds like the snake is trying to control it's body temp. If the ambient temp is cool, but there is one lone hot spot provided by the heat lamp then that might be why he is half in and out of the hide. It also might be why he is basking in the light.

Do you have any other heat source, and what is the temp away from the basking spot?
