>>Are you sure she can go another week or two with out eating?



Feeding too soon will cause problems. Get the temps right, give the snake time to adjust and stabilize, then offer food. Once you get the temps above 80, offer food about a week later.



They loose valuable digestive fluids when they regurge, it takes time for them to replenish those fluids.
