I have a a albino corn that is about a month and a half old and jus had his second shed. i have had him about a month and he has not ate and did not know why, well i got up this am and he had shed, how long after shed should i attempt to feed ? i want to post pics but do not know how, any advice on that would be great as well. Thanks: eatpointe
 
I tend to feed the same day they shed, after i check to make sure there are no attached pieces. they've usually gone right for it, especially since they won't have eaten for two weeks. ;p
 
I feed on their regular schedule, regardless of whether they are in blue. If they decide not to eat, then that's fine. But mine usually do.
 
Not trying to hijack the thread, but is there a risk feeding a snake that didn't completely shed?

My first corn just shed yesterday, but only off the top half of the body, bottom half of shed is still intact.

Feeding isn't your worry now. You need to soak him in room temp water and get that skin off. Make sure your humidity is high enough in your cage, the skin is supposed to come off in one piece, or if there is a tear, it should have come off all at the same time.
