So my corn snake is in blue now and his feeding was Tuesday and he just got into blue now I didn't feed him yesterday because he was in the shed cycle and I heard not to feed when they are. So should I feed him after he sheds? And then feed him again on Tuesday?
 
I would just wait until next Tuesday. I always wait to feed mine until their next scheduled feeding day. The only time I don't wait is for example, feeding day is Thursday and the snake sheds on Friday. Then I will feed Friday and wait to feed again till Thursday to get back on track. But if they shed on Sunday, for example, I wait until Thursday. They won't suffer from missing a meal :)
 
He will be fine. I've done that for all of my snakes, and I've raised 4/5 of them from hatchlings. Babies can go three weeks without a meal and not suffer. I have a hatchling right now who hatched on June 14th who has not eaten a darn thing yet. Aside from being skinny, he's still active. Yesterday I finally got some pinkie bits into him.
If you are truly worried about it, you can feed after he sheds. It might switch up your feeding days though. I don't see two meals in a row hurting him though if you do decide to feed him again on Tuesday.
