    You offered twice in 24 hours that and too big of an enclosure, switching of the enclosure is a lot and I am not surprise she did not eat today either. Put her in something smaller 6 quarts max and wait for 5 to 7 days and next time leave the prey overnight and in the mean time no handling.

    I would also recommend to raise the temp on the cool side to 80, young ones like it hot.

    If at that time she still does not eat you can go even smaller with a 2.7 quarts tub https://www.walmart.com/ip/Sterilite...lear/113216537 that's really a great size for an hatchling that size and until it reaches 20 grams.

    If again she fail to eat you will keep the same setup however you will start scenting the prey, I know it's a step backward however at 9 grams you do not have much wiggle room and need to have her eating for you within the next few week.
