Corns can generally be popped or probed after they've had their first shed. Sometimes hatchlings are too small to probe right off the bat, and only after they've grown a bit can the smallest probe work safely.
DO NOT attempt to pop or probe if you are not experienced with it, as you can harm the snake permanently by doing it wrong. (But then most of you all knew this...)
The corn in the picture is an amelanistic (red albino). It's definitely big enough to be probed.
