Hi Lucas, heres the deal, Please take no offense, we are trying to get to the problem. In doing so, its going to be hit and miss until the actual problem becomes apparent, or the snake dies, or eats.

These days its very hard as there is so much success and anybody and everybody says something. if you have to go to the internet to get ideas, you will get ideas or theories or methods until you cannot see strait. So how do you get past that? In my opinion, that's what you need to learn.
All this stuff brought up are methods to achieve something. For you to make it useful. After someone tells you something, all you have to do is ask, WHY? You see, onces you understand WHY, the "how" you attain that can be done in many ways.
About heating, with snakes, all you need is a small area, If your room or base temps are low seventies, room temp, to low eighties, all you need is one corner of the tank/cage heated. It can be done with lites, red lites, heat pads, stove tops etc. Some folks keep their snakes in a room where one wall gets full sun, and simply push the cages up to the wall, about the most natural way. Each part of the country can have its own methods and also you can fine tune methods.
The problem is, is your snake healthy, if its not, then normal methods are not going to help. If your snake is a normal healthy snake, then one or more of the methods commonly available will work. I already mentioned that feeding is a life supporting event, so not eating must have strong reason. Reptiles can appear healthy and then die, in most cases, its from organ damage. About dealers, its nothing against them, its about numbers, the bigger then are, the higher a change of a problem. And problems can occur with anyone. So thinking its so and so, so its all good. Well, its not good as your animal is not feeding. You have to figure out why. That's all we are concerned with. Be like a reporter, what, why, where, when and how. hahahahahahahahahaha Best of luck
