Unusual Change in Behavour

Good day

we recently moved our one corn snake from a smaller 1000mm x 45mm x 60 mm into a 1500mm x 50mm x 60mm she used to be very active and would slither up and down the tank, since she has been moved all she does is stay in her hide, she is almost ready to shed so im not sure if this is the reason but would there be anything else I need to be concerned about? She is about 1.2m long so the new tank is alot bigger for her.

Please try to shorten your sentences and adjust your grammar then people will find it easier to read and will take the time to answer. BV

Snakes normally prefer to hide when they're in the blue (getting ready to shed), so I wouldn't worry too much about it. I'd be more concerned if the snake was too restless, as this would more than likely indicate that something is stressing the snake out.
