i would leave it for a week, other than changing water. Also, i would put the water bowl on the warm side of the tank, as this will raise the humdity and help it with shedding.

Did you get any pics?

exactly as per muppets reply

corns usually shed well without any help but if the shed isn't complete then it's pretty easily rectified. their eyes/colour goes 'blue' then their eyes clear again then they shed within a week but let him/her settle in for a week first.

and congrats on your purchase
