Hey all, I got my first corn on Saturday, all set up correctly exactly like the hatching set up guide in the sticky's.

Only thing is, he hasn't come out of the warm end hide since we got him, haven't seen him drink or even explore the faunarium.

Is this normal in the first couple of weeks? We are sticking to the 7 day's with no handling rule, all I've done is lift his hide up to see if he is OK/alive because of how reclusive he is.

Cheers for any answers

He's probably been out when your not there, alot of corns take along time to be comfortable exploring when theres people in the room, all of mine execpt austin hide most of the time (he pokes his head out of the hide when anyones in the room) its a fairly normal thing they are more active at night :) wouldnt worry to much

thanks for the replies guys, he's had his head poking out the hide for the last 2 hours :) just seems to be slowly getting to know where he is, cant wait to handle him :D

sounds the same as when i got my snake.he started poking his head out of his hide after a couple of days,then after about a week he was coming half way out of his hide....now a couple of months on he's out and about every night!It's a nice feeling when they feel confident enough around you to come out and explore their viv/RUB
