tried to feed my baby corn yesterday, but she didnt take, how long shouild i wait before trying her again, also she is starting her shed now,(will probably only be her 3rd)do they go off food before they start to shed, im hoping so coz everyone else feeds really well and am not sure the best way to encourage a corn to eat.

one of my corns wont eat during shed. i would leave it til she has shed then try again. all they want to do is hide when they shed.

i agree, and if she still won't eat i'd try 'braining' the mouse.

the amazing colour of the cornsnake, as it glides through the feild, never a mistake
so as not to wake
the hapless prey before it, this may as well roll over and close it's eyes as the silent hunter shall always get his prize.
the forked tounge can smell you mouse,red eyes can see you stir, if she does not wake and run now, that will be the end of her.
