i would wait a few days before feeding him again. let him get more comfortable with his new surroundings. also make sure he has a hide spot.



on a side note, i have heard that dispite what some sources say, some individuals have seen signs that indicate their snakes were able to see red lights (pupil changes) if this is the case then they would be agitated having a visible light on them 24hrs (as most red lights are used at night). this is not the reason i use black lights but rather because i am bothered by the red bulb glow. in conclusion, it wouldnt hurt to change out the red bulb for a black one if you can/want.
