Is there a way to tell when your corn is sleeping?

Or do they never let you catch them asleep?

do their eyes even close?

help me people.
 
one time I found my baby snow corn just laying there, not moving at all
I got scared and started knocking on the glass and she still wouldn't move
so i went in a poked her until she moved
I was so relieved! I thought she was dead D:
obviously, she was sleeping, haha.
 
Thats a hard one to tell....
I know with some of our arboreals. If you go in too quiet, to get them. They jump and fall off their perch.... I think they may be asleep.... I now put a hand under the perch just in case...LOL
 
Look for reduced respiration, lack of tongue flicking, and a general level of not being aware of the environment. See those things, and the snake is asleep. Sometime you think, "Is it sleeping?" but usually 9once you get a feel for it), you can often tell when on is asleep by telling when it wakes up; startle it, put the smell of food near it and watch it START to react to the environment, etc. Snakes are easy. I'm not surewild bullfrogs EVER sleep.....lol.

Mine occasionally gives the game away by tipping his head ever so slightly to the side, whilst resting it on his body. As KJUN said, most of the time you only really know they've been asleep after you've startled them awake!
