Bought my 3 year old corn about 3 month ago, and she is an active snake always out, always on the move and a good feeder. but the last 3 days she hasnt really came out of her hide rock, temp in viv is normal. cant see her eyes to see if its early stages of shedding but she shed the day before i bought her. Any advice?

My adults which are both over 5 years old both shed every 1-2 months

At that age they can shed anything up to 5 or 6 times a year. So she is probably due one by now. My Amel has been hiding for the best part of a week now. Checked her out and is deep in pink.
Don't worry, just leave her to get on with it. She'll probably go blue, then clear and come out for a prowl then shed within a week.

Is it not too soon to shed, considering she only shed 3 months ago?

Sounds like it could be shedding.

My guess is she is shedding again. Just leave them to it is my best advice for shedding, up the humidity a bit with a damp face cloth on top of one of the hides and leave them alone to do their thing, I don't even offer food when they are hiding away during the shedding process, does them no harm to skip a meal.
