Found my baby corn that escaped 4 months ago.
Looking smaller than she was and very thin. Also got a bit of an attitude on her!
she fed last night but im still worried.
Is there anything i should be doing?

I could be wrong here, just guessing but I would pop her in her faun/viv with everything she needs (heatmat on, fresh water, hides) then leave her be for a week as you would with a new corn snake only disturbing to change water.
Glady you found her. |

wow that was very lucky. glad you have found her. now she has eaten and is safe i would leave her as louise said. let her get used to her surroundings again and just change her water. after 5 days or so start handling her for a few mins at a time.

Fantastic news!
The snake was probably disturbed from it's hiding place by you packing everything up. So lucky you spotted it or the new tenants would have got a shock.
I'm sure the snake will soon settle down, it's had a hard few months so it's no wonder the poor thing is out if sorts.
