Other than that, the only other thing that comes to mind is that he's still hungry and might need to move up in prey size.
I was thinking about moving him up to fuzzies, but they seem kinda big for him. I'm currently feeding him 2 pinkie mice, maybe I should feed 3 or go to fuzzies? And yes, it does seem that male Corns have that behavior. With ALL of my male snakes, they seem like they don't like me.. they look at me in a funny way.. like I'm crazy or something. My female snakes, they are all so sweet and don't give me looks like I'm crazy. The males just seem a bit more aggressive than the females. My newest male BP is still giving me funny looks.. and I've had him for over a month now and I do handle him often. Just don't know what to do with these males. Though, my largest King snake whose a male is pretty nice to me. His name is Steve, after Steve Irwin :]
