Just set her up where you plan on keeping her and leave (AS HARD AS IT WILL BE )her Alone for aleast a week,then briefly check her in the evening and then lights out LEAVE ! Attempt a feeding on the third week.**Temp 85-88* & Humidity 60% If blue phase is noted (which is most likely stress enduced from shipping)up it to 65'ish any higher and your asking for potential RI issues,not likely but why present the opportunity?**
If you dont get a feeding response after 1 minute(DO Not touch the animal with the prey) Leave it alone for another week but two weeks would be better. Then repeat feeding attempt as above.
Only this time raise the temp by 1-2degrees the day before(dont peek !! LOL!! just raise the temp and LEAVE !!!
I understand its hard to resist BUT !Once the magic begins there will be plenty of time to catch up.When the animal finally takes a feed,leave it AGAIN for two days before messing with it.

FWIW,
Non feeders rarely use a temp gradient as they will generally just hide where temps are tolerably(sub 90*)So no need in futile issues or worries about such.
Water dishs close by allow for access to water without clearing the hide with their entire body.Excessive Husbandry levels and human impatience are the primary causes of "ISSUES" in captive BCI.

Snakes are very simple creatures and have been for thousands of years,that simplicity as been interupted by human means and needs to be "reset".There isnt a "Anally Excessive" Caresheet of Protocals that will ever change or replace that fact in any way shape or form.
All that above may sound complicated but its actually just basic husbandry and patience.

Good Luck with it !!
