When did he last eat? I'm sure sound advice would be posted soon. My mate found a corn and had no heat mat for a few days an the snake was fine ( his flat is well hot mind ) just obviously don't feed until the new mat is up and running

Just make sure the mats running a good day and holding temp right. Are u sure it was the mat? Not very often we hear of them just stopping.
