Question Adopted Cornsnake burrowed and won't come out

Hi guys, I made an account on this forum only for this question

I just adopted a 13 year old female amel corn snake from a sanctuary. Last Saturday I took her out of the bag. She was looking healthy and alert! The guy I got her from said sje might just be starting to go into shed again because her scales look a bit desaturated. I let her go into her new big tank (120x60x60cm) by herself and she went straight under one of the dried moss patches next to her wetbox and burrowed into the bedding (about 10cm Aspen fiber mixed with bark chips)

I could see her body against the glass and her tail was still sticking out.

My issue is, she's been like that for three days now. She is still alive, she pulled her tail completely under the bedding yesterday but aside from that she hasn't moved at all.

I thought maybe she'd come out at night or move to her wetbox (as I said, she's probably going in shed soon) or her cave but nope!

Is she ok? Should I look to increase the temperature in the tank? Is she just nervous because she moved?
