Crestie Qs, checking my methods
So, this is Haint, the halloween crestie I brought home 2 days ago:

Temps keep around 74-75f, ambient humidity around 50%, cage stays closer to 60%. Haint is about 2 weeks away from being a year old (hatched Nov 5, 2010).
When I got Haint, she had been kept in a terrarium with a few clutch mates, was obviously bottom of the pecking order, and not doing too hot because of it. Underfed, pale, and fairly dehydrated. The pic I have is her "good side", but her other eye is still a little sunken. I have caught her drinking, and the first day I had her she actually ate more CGD than I thought her little belly could hold. Today I gave her a much smaller amount of CGD, which she hasn't touched, and 3 very small crickets, dusted with calcium. Her appetite seems fine so far, I'm more worried about getting her properly hydrated. I've given her a hide with damp paper towels, and may have been a bit over zealous with misting the tank today (between the hide and the misting, her enclosure's humidity is up to 80% right now, oops).
I know that since I've only had her for 2 days I obviously won't be able to see much change/improvement, but can anyone see anything I need to change, or any extra tips?
Thanks everybody
