What kind of enclosure is the ball python in now?
When I did use hest pad my ball was in a glass enclosure and the pad was outside of the tank under him.
At the moment my ball pythons and retic are on cypress mulch mixed with zoo med (i think it's zoomed) forest floor. It hold humidity well and they like to play around in the stuff. I use heat lights though but that's because of my enclosure
Not hest rocks either

He's not in anything quite as sizeable as those enclosures you have haha He's currently in a large, flat exoterra enclosure with a large heat mat underneath the box, thermostat and he's on lignocel bedding as its the only stuff I currently have in as that's what my milk is on

I'd suggest putting cages around those light bulbs so that the snakes won't be able to touch the hot bulb and get burned.
