    She is about 10 inches long and has been letting me handle her with only a little bit of attitude. She was fed three days ago and wont take any food, is this normal? How often do you think she needs to be fed?

    Three days is nothing to worry about she's just adjusting to the new environment.As for feeding I found that every 2 days on bits of food about half the size of the head until you see a small lump in their bellies works well.When she starts to gain some size drop feeding down to every 3-4 days.also it's important to note with babies that you should worry about over feeding more than underfeeding them as it can kill.
