The only thing I forgot to mention is that I put a little piece of card / cardboard down on the substrate just in front of the hide entrance -just to lessen the chance of them eating some bark with the rat / mouse .

The good thing now is that you been successful you will be more confident next time and even if it doesn't take it first time , just repeat the the warming and offering until it does strike .
The first two offerings I think she was still asleep, so I just sort of knocked her hide with the mouse. By the third time she was moving a lot in her there but not much I could see. The fourth time she had her head already out and just waiting for it, she went for it instantly.
