I usually wait until snakes are eating regularly, at least three meals in a row before handling and give them two days after a feeding before taking them out. Especially with a baby, don't want to set them back. I've got a stubborn eating baby right now that I've had a few months who still isn't eating regularly and I don't bother him. You'll have 20+ years to handle her so no rush. Great that she took f/t so well first try.
It sounds like maybe you have two different hides, just keep an eye on the situation, some snakes will pick security over proper temps so identical hides are recommended. Bp's pretty much hide all the time, being out and about is more a sign of stress although new baby, new cage not unusual to see a snake exploring.
