I've had my corn for about 4 weeks now. For the first 2-3 weeks he would come out and be very active at dusk (around 7-9pm). For the past week or so, he has been staying in the warm hide all day, as far as I know. I'm not home all day, but usually I would see him out and about a couple times a day. I may just be being paranoid, but I am a little worried being a new snake owned. I've read that snakes do tend to just sleep for days on end, but it's not really reassuring.
To the best of my ability I've made sure that all the pinkies were thawed. But, would a partially frozen pinkie have a bad effect on a corn snake, to where it becomes very inactive?
Also, I have him in aspen bedding, and he buries himself underneath of it after feedings. I haven't been able to find any stools at all except for when I first brought him home. I was using paper towels as substrate then. Does anyone with aspen substrate have problems locating stools?
Thanks in advance.
