it takes at least a week for them to settle in, and they're more active at night when we're asleep anyway
although some corns are more sociable than others too, and they have their own personalities  |

Some snakes are like that, more often they are out at late evening/night.
Usually they'll appear if something is going on that grabs their curiosity.
Slide the door open and change the water, then start doing something else in the room the viv is in, move cushions/make the bed or something and she'll probably poke her head out to have a nosy at you as well.
She will come out of hiding eventually. My snakes go through stages of where they're hidden away all the time, then they'll be out having a creep around all the time.
They seem to do what they want when they want. |

| Our snake is always hiding, the only time we see him is after he has been handled, he usually has a look around his viv then its straight back to his hide. |

my new three have just recently started coming out about.. iv been coming into my room at night and finding all 3 pressed against the plastic tryin to see who can curl up smallest! lol
she will come out on her own accord but you should be able to start handling her soon just for 5 mins a time to get her used to being handled and out of the viv.. once she realises that being handled is fun and you are no threat she will eventually start coming up to your hand |
