Actually, you'll find that she'll likely eat MUCH better for your in a tub than in a big 40 gallon tank.

My first ball python was kept in a tank, fasted for 8 months, I moved him to a tub and he ate the first week he was moved and each week after that.
Really? You just made my day! I do see how a bin could make a shy snake feel much more comfortable and safe; nobody staring at you through the glass, a little less space... I bet she'll love it, and hopefully she'll be better about her eating habits.
