Leave him be. The snake itself is the best judge of what temp he needs to be at.

Alice has bedded down in the cool end after a feed a few times now. I don't know if it's the right thing to do but I usually leave him there for his 48 hours then start messin around in his viv so it disturbs him n he scootles off into his warm hide. Then I leave him there for an extra 24 hours to make sure the mouse has digested ok.

He should move over when he feels he needs too. Reggie very often goes into the cold hide straight after a feed but is usually in his warm hide by the next morning.

That said he has pretty much stayed in his cold hide for the full 2 days before today and digested the food ok, wether this was a bit of luck i don't know.
