Am I overreacting? Corn not eating

[Zincubus]

Hi all,

I rescued an adult corn snake a few weeks ago. I have offered her mice three times and she hasn't accepted any yet. I can see a bit of a fold where there is looser skin than I think is normal, so that's telling me that she isn't drinking water either - is that a reasonable assumption?

I have handled her twice and she seemed to be comfortable/friendly. I have kept her environment as calm as possible to let her adjust, so she shouldn't be stressed out other than coming to a new home.

How long is a normal adjustment period for adult snakes? When should I be worried about her hunger strike?

Thanks!

Are you certain it's a female ??

Male tend to go off the food about this time of the year ..
