My very first snake!

Hey everyone! Randall here, and this is my very first snake, _____ (Have not thought of a name yet, maybe DJ). I've had experience with other reptiles in the past and now that they are all gone (Given away or sold), i missed them and decided to get a Hognose. To be quiet honest, I was terrified of snakes about a couple of weeks ago but then I stumbled across these guys and they grew on me. I've already got quite a little bit of a hissy show form this little guy that makes me jump a little but I'll get used to it haha. Anyways here is some pictures of the little guy and his enclosure(Which has my textbooks on top just to make sure my new friend doesn't surprise me in the morning).

I've got two hides in the enclosure, one on hot and cold, a small water dish which used to be my croc skink's worm dish, and a piece of wood i got from a local pet store all on aspen snake bedding. Hot side is about 90 degrees with the ambient being around 80~81. Cold side is about 76-~79. This is my first snake so any advice on how I am doing things so far would be greatly appreciated.

Well that ties up my little introduction, I hope to make some friends here and be active in this forum

[Also, the last picture is a picture from the breeder I acquired him from!]

Also, if someone can point me in the direction of a accurate Infrared thermometer so I can do spot checks in the enclosure without putting an extra thermometer in there that would be helpful! This is mostly so i can keep an eye on everything and double check with my thermostat that the temps are consistent and correct. Thank you!
