    Awesome! Welcome to the site and the addiction!

    Holy cow is she thin! I would feed her every 3-4 days if I were you. She's super thin and could stand some bulking up! It's normal for bps to eat in the winter, sometimes they fast, but babies aren't well known for that. If you do decide to feed her every 3-4 days, which I highly recommend, use a prey item that is about the same size as she is around or smaller, not bigger. Since she hasn't been fed well, or ever, before you got her, you don't want to stress her body with large meals. I'm so glad she has eaten for you! If she roams around the cage a lot during the day I suggest putting fake plants in the tank to fill in the extra space and make her feel more secure. Also, you can put some crumpled newspaper in her hide, it's a bit big for her. She's tiny so she needs a little help! I put crumpled newspaper in the hides and tubs of really young bps to fill up the open space.

    Good luck with her!
