Substrate is much a matter of personal preference. There's nothing wrong with paper towels, newspaper or aspen. Use what suits you best. As for feeding, sounds like you are doing just fine. As he gets bigger, increase his food size accordingly. And as for the musking, every snake is different. With more handling, he may adjust to you and quit, or he may not. Time will tell. Good luck!
