Stop handling the snake.
You are stressing it out.
Stop taking picures of it.
You are stressing it out.
Do not watch TV with your snake.
You are stressing it out.

The snake is in a new environment.
Leave it alone and let it adjust.
Make sure it has the proper temperature gradient and hide spots.

Wait at least 5 days before trying to feed it again.
While waiting get Kathy Love's or Don Soderberg's book on Corn Snakes and read it.

There's no point in asking for advice if you're not going to follow it.
