Humidity should usually be around 40 or 50%. And then provide a humid hide or mist the viv when the snake is in shed.

Might I suggest picking up a copy of Kathy Love's book? It is fantastic and covers all aspects of care, from beginner stuff, through breeding and genetics, and covers colors and patterns as well. Its called Cornsnakes: The Comprehensive Owners Guide. You can buy it directly from Kathy on her site, cornutopia.com. You can also find the older version (now out of print) on sites like Amazon.com for really cheap, it is called The Corn Snake Manual.

Okay. Temps aren't too bad. It would be nice if you could get the cool side up a few degrees, but you're heading in the right direction.

60% humidity is okay, yeah, a little high, but shouldn't do any harm.

Some of them like trees. My Fred spends a lot of time in his tree or climbing his vines (they seem to do this a lot as babies).

Wait at least 5 days from the last attempted feeding before trying again. You don't want to put him off food for good.

Good luck!

What I meant by 'put him off food' was scaring him into not eating. If you constantly try to feed a non-feeding baby (like trying to feed them every day or even every other day) it can very easily frighten them into not eating at all.

When you do feed him next, put him in a small container (a plastic sandwich container with air holes in it works well, or a deli cup if you can find one) with a very very warm pinky, put him in a dark place (somewhere warm), and don't disturb him for at least an hour. No peeking!! If, after the hour (or more) he hasn't eaten, warm the pinky back up and leave him with it (in the container) overnight.
