It sounds like you have the right idea, I would maybe lean a bit more toward the pinky parts or other high calorie/fat foods (definitely supplemented) until she gets better. Ackies don't seem to appreciate being sprayed directly or soaked, so I would avoid that if at all possible. They do need humidity though, so spraying the basking spot periodically and covering most of the top is probably a good idea. I have seen some pretty nasty fights between both adults and juvies before, but nothing like severed limbs. Peace, quiet, heat, cover, and good food should do the trick. I've never had an ackie on meds though, so your mileage may vary.
As an aside, its a bummer this species has become so disposable already. =/
Glad you are taking care of it, but hope you talked the dealer into giving it to you.
Good Luck,
Andy
