>>give her shelter proper heat and alot of water!!! dont bother her for a few days!! check nightly to see if the meal has stayed down. If it has you can try to give some food f/t or fresh killed.. if she wont eat on her own try and feed her on your own. rehab her the same way you would a boa! good luck.. do you have pics age or weight of her so we can give you some more advise.

Good advice..and i have had good luck balling up newspaper to use as a "leaf litter" for them to crawl around in.Works well for those ultra shy nonfeeding hatchlings.They seem to feel a little safer with stuff to hide under/around etc..I give them a baby mouse that has just started moving around the first few times too.
