He is prolly still in fight or flight mode when they are stressed they go into what is called FIGHT OR FLIGHT he is trying to decideif he needs to defend himself of flee I would definatley leave him as alone as possible for at least 5 but more like 7 days only do you routine cleaning and water change make him feel as secure as possible then slowly start handeling after he eats for you at least once. Make sure to check out the links offered above and keep us informed. One of my snakes took almost 2 weeks to settle in he had no tongue and very little movement during the day and would roam all night long. Once he settles in he was great so just give the little guy some time![]()
