Your temps sound fine, assuming you are referring to a Celsius measurement of 32 which is about 88 Fahrenheit (sp?). How often are you offering him food? It should only be about once a week or so (5 to 10 days). Are you offering mice, or rats? If neither work on this schedule try obtaining live weanling rats or live jumbo mice. Kill them just before offering them to him. They will still smell "alive" and will still give off a heat signiture to your python's heat sensing pits. Sometimes they just have a need for freshly killed, seemingly alive, prey.
