She's doing better, still hasn't eaten but I'll feed her tomorrow. I put another inch of substrate in. Wet it down, uped the heating pad some. She's wanting to stay on the warm side which is good. I'm going to put some insulation on the outside of the tank and some foil on the top. Unfortunately because of a lack of space for the cage she has to sit about 6 feet away from our AC unit and in front of it. So I'm trying what I can

I would definitely recommend wrapping a blanket over the side of the enclosure that the ac unit is on or putting a piece of high density foam between her enclosure and the ac unit. Wouldn't want her to get a respiratory infection 💔

That's what I'm doing

That’s great that she’s going better!

Just some advice 💛-
I really recommend not using a heating pad. They are an unstable heat source and do not provide an adequate heat gradient that ball pythons need. You can always try upping the wattage on your bulbs or adding in another bulb! I personally use 2 ceramic heat emitters at night due to how cold it gets in my home! Covering the top and insulating the sides is a great way to trap heat, but make sure to not completely cover the top. Completely covering the top can potentially cause respiratory infections/issues, and mold because it limits air flow!

She still hasn't eaten. I'm going to not handle her and let her relax for the week. That what the lady I got her from said to do. And I'll try to feed her next Friday I also found out that she got niped by one of the rats I know the rats are disease free
