hi i just bought a 24in cornsnake here in malaysia.it looks healthy,not skinny,alert.the pet shop have it for about 2 week.

i have it for 4 days now.i have given it frozen pinky,dead mice,live mice but it still doesnt want to eat.when i give it frozen pinky or dead mice,it only smell it and go.when i give it live mice,the snake tried to bite the mice when it came near but it look like a deffensive strike rather than trying to eat it.

so why is it not eating?is it just stress?not addjusting to tropical malaysian weather yet?haven addjusted to its new home?well i know snake can go for a long time without food but i'm affraid it might be something else.

so can somebody help me.i dont want to lose this snake.corn snake are very expensive here,us$150 for a normal like this.

thanks
