I agree.Whenever i ad something to my collection even if its bought at a freinds pet store(20 minutes away) i give them a week to settle in ;)

She'll either go or she won't ... don't rush the feeding on a new girl ... I wait at least 3 weeks when I get new adult animals in before I offer food ... Breeding season or not, she should get at least a 90 day quarantine so you've got plenty of time to put some meals in her.

Thank you Adam. She is currently in a tub in another room and she will stay there for 90 days. I will hold off on feeding for a few weeks. I appreciate everyone's advice!
