Definitely overweight mate.. I'd cut it's food right down (one mouse every 3 weeks) and handle it fairly often - keep it exercised - and start weighing it.. Assuming it's roughly 4 feet you don't really want it above 650grams..
Don't take offense to it or anything - corns are easy to over feed, your's is no where near the worst ever posted on here! Much easier to catch the signs early like this, before they start getting "hips" and other fat deposits :2thumb:
He is slightly chunky but there is supposed to be a dip between the muscles.
Look at his shape really. If you took a cross section on him it should be square not round.
To be honest he doesn't look too bad to me either, i wouldn't say he's overweight (if he is it is only very very slightly). Just weigh him regularly & keep an eye so he doesn't get too fat (as said Corns are prone to piling on the weight).
ah many thanks, appreicated, if we dont ask,,,,, we dont learn
