    That's probably a good idea, since she hasn't been eating for 2 months and she is rather skinny, overfeeding can be just as bad as underfeeding. I'd offer 3 fuzzies every 5 days, since she can obviously wants them and will keep them down. That's just my amateur opinion though, might wanna get a second one. I've never owned a baby/young snake so I'm not super familiar with their feeding habits, both mine were acquired when when they were between 1-2 years old. Might wanna give her a good 30 minute soak in lukewarm water to help with that stuck shed too after she digests, that'll help hydrate her too, and it'll probably feel good.

    http://lexingtonreptileexpo.com/default.aspx is a reptile expo I found near you (Knoxville, TN), and they say their next show is on the 20th. I'd go check them out.
