Corn Sanke Not Eating
I have a young corn that has been feeding fine in a shoebox every Saturday on a pinkie but this weekend it didn't eat. I gave it a pinkie yesterday and today and it goes up to it like it's going to bite it but it doesn't.
Could this be because it was just in blue? A couple days ago its eyes were a little foggy, but they seem to be cleared up now.

The snake is about to shed in a couple of days. Mist the cage, a day or two after the snake sheds offer it food again~!

Yep just wait out the shedding process. 3 out of 4 of my snakes refuse food during shed.

Re: Corn Sanke Not Eating
Quite possibly due to shed. Dont keep trying to feed tho, you will stress the snake. Any of mine that dont eat get left til the next scheduled feed.
