I'm a new corn owner...I have a 0.1 red albino motley; really in love with her, lol she's adorable! Anyways, I got about 3 wks ago. Gave her a wk to settle in then fed her last Friday (she did eat). I offered her another pinkie today but she wasn't interested. I think she's gettig ready to shed...starting to pale out. How long does that take with corns? Will she not be interested in feeding until she's done? I wasn't sure if I should try feeding again in a day or so or if I should wait for her to shed. Also, is her large water dish enough for moisture?

Thanks,

Emilee

Hi there and welcome to the forum.
If you have a hatchling you should try to feed every four to seven days.
and just to let you know..some snakes eat during the shed cycle and some don't. that up to the snake. But shed cycles last up to ten days about. I would try do feed on your regularly feeding schedule. If the snake eats fine , if not wait until the next schedule day. I don't know about the water dish because I can't see it but it should be big enough for the snake to take a dip in it. But if you meant humidity, it should be 40-50% during the shed cycle.
