thats exactly where im at with my milk. i let it go to 90 for a few days after it eats. when you let the mice thaw out (if eating frozen) do you have to feed it warm? sometimes it takes about 10 mins before he eats it and by then the food is cold (room temp) lol that should be ok right?

Yeah that's fine. I thaw mine in warm water. All my snakes normally eat as soon right away. I do make them follow the tongs with mouse until they grab it.
