My new snake

Hi as you may be aware, I had to take my new snake back to the shop as it was sick. Well now I have a new one. Hes really active and very alert, nothing like the last one. But when should I feed him. I was told he was due to be fed today, but he won't. :(
Also can anyone tell me what morph I have?
At the moment he is in a tiny tank that they gave me with the snake, but I have a huge tank I was going to put him in. Is he too small to put into such a huge one? Hes so active I think he'd have a ball!!
Any help appreciated!

Looks like you have a nice looking AMEL cornsnake there

What size is the larger tank???I wouldn't suggest anything bigger then a 10 gallon right now....As that may stress him out to much...If he was due to feed today and you have tried, he refused, Then I would suggest giving him/her about 3-4 days of no handling, no distractions to let him get used to his new surrounding's...Then I would try and feed him again...

Hi I am leaving Indi alone for the next 3 days, even though its hard. Hes had a day today of being left too, but hes stayed curled up in the same spot. Is that normal? How will I know when hes ready to be fed? Will he become really active inside the tank or something?:confused:
I am so worried I am going to do this all wrong, he will die and then I will never get another, although I love them so much. Maybe I should have got an adult snake, would it have been easier?
Sorry for being such a pain!

It is very normal for him to stay curled up in one spot. You should get on a shedule of feeding him once a week.:)
