Dunno if this might help, but if it were me, I would assume that she hasn't. Bump down her temp, give her a hot side of between 87-89. Cool the cool side if you can. Humidity looks good, although some babies seem to like a higher humidity for a while, like the upper end of what you have. If she wants to sit on top of a hide, that's fine, as long as the temps are below 90. Babies that feel too warm tend to want to be higher in their cages. Also, I've seen new babies that feel more confident striking downward at a prey item than when it's at their level.

Wait a week, that's fine.

Try a mouse. A live mouse crawler just beginning to open its eyes is the best, but if you can't get that, try a f/t hopper. Warm it, dry it, leave it in overnight, directly in front of the snake's hide box. I always assume fear with a new baby, so I don't zombie dance. Scenting with a roll in soiled mouse bedding can help, too. Live, though, really is the best possible bet if you can skate it.

Like I say, that's just me. Hopefully someone else will have better suggestions.

For the pied, does she have hides?

Other than that, the albino clown and dragonfly are lovely. Hopefully the dragonfly takes something for you pretty soon! If she's used to a certain size of live, go ahead and stick with that, if you can.
Per the seller I purchased her from, the GHI has been eating mouse hoppers. I can only take his word for it unfortunately, but have already contacted him about the eating/size issue after I initially unboxed her and he just keeps assuring me that she has eaten before. I've tried a F/T pinkie and two very small rat fuzzies (not even as big as the thickest part of her body) and she has not shown any interest in either of them. Even the smell of live mouse doesn't get her going.

And yes, the pied has a hide on the warm and cold side (although she prefers under the newspaper) and has wadded up paper towel in them since they are a bit tall to try and make them more snug. The picture posted was the one I took when I first set her up and had not put the hides in yet.

I've offered the Dragonfly both F/T and live, and each time she has shied away from it. Of course for her she just may not be hungry, so I won' t press the issue. The breeder said he was feeding her weaned rats (mainly live, but she did take a F/T on occasion) and I've offered her a large Fuzzy (did not have weaned) and a live mouse.

Unfortunately I did not know she was going to BE that small. As stated, I thought she would put on more weight before I got her and was very surprised that she was smaller then when I purchased her since a month had passed. Unfortunately I have not been able to find a breeder anywhere near me to try and purchase live prey from.
