how old is your corn,was just looking at some of your other pics and if its a young one your viv and the hides are too big and it's probably feeling insecure.What size is your viv,any chance of a pic from the front
edit..just notice too that you only got it tuesday so it still early day yet,and snakes can go days or even weeks without being seen. |

Well on tuesday he will need handling right as it will be 7days in his viv with out being handled so if he does not come out by tuesday do i lift his cave up and take him out to be loved and handled or do i leave him alone until he comes out on his own also he will be fed on thursday.  |

i wouldnt worry,if he needed heat he would move,no need to wake him,you could just lift the hide to make sure he's ok just toassure yourself,i would wait until he's out and about to handle,i know it's hard to wait but it will pay off in the end

Ok thanks mate i will leave him be until hes ready but will he go aggresive like from not being tamed? until then i will play with dogs haha , wanted to welcome champagne in to the family but its no problem ill wait til hes ready. do i feed him as normal on thursday even if he still does not come out the cave
On the first 2 days of having him he was extreamly hyper and active in the viv until i fed him last thursday he decided not to come out 
Edited: i cleaned his poo out on friday as normal while he slept in the cool side he pooed two times in the heat side lol  |

| snakes after feeding will take themselves off and hide somwhere warm for the food to digest- in the wild a full snake would be in danger of being eaten because they are full and sluggish. I wouldnt worry, I barely see my female out of the hide more than once a week! |

Thats my point hes been in the cool side cave since he was fed so he has not had the warmth. |

| is there is cave or hide on the warm side? still wouldnt worry too much, snakes arent like dogs or cats, they dont actually "like" being around humans, so will be quite secretive. |

you don't know what he does at night.. probably racing around the vivarium!!
Corns are nocturnal so you would rarely see them around in the day time :) |

| You say he was ina lunch box, now in a viv, How big is the viv? He might be scared of the big open space all of a sudden, Give him times Im sure he will be fine. Is the viv anywhere that gets noisy? Lots of people walking past ect? that could be why he is hideing so much? |
