Give her a little bit to settle in, and offer her a prey item that you know is too small. In case the guy wasn't being truthful, you dont want to shock her system and end up with a regurge. Let her digest that and then slowly work your way up to an appropriate size prey item. Feed her every 5-7 days or so once you know she can keep something down. Also, as soon as she poops, take the fecal to your vet and get a fecal float done to make sure there are no other problems going on internally (parasites, etc). Make sure she also has enough humidity, wrinkly skin is a sign of dehydration. Give her a water dish big enough to soak in and bump her humidity to 70% or so.

Good thing of you to do to help her, i hope she gets nice and healthy for you
