First feeding!

Today I fed Dyna for the first time ever.
AMAZING.
I put her in one of those Ziploc disposable tupperware containers. nice and small and cozy.
She investigated for a little bit.. realized food was there and BAM. That was it!
She ate the pinky with no problems.
It was so cool. My little sister who thinks the whole feeding pinkies thing is gross even came down to watch.
She's such a good little snake.
Now, no handling for 3-4 days right?

Congratulation on your first successful feed!
Right, leave her alone for 3-4 day to digest. Just make sure she has plenty of fresh water available. (My snakes tend to drink more the first few days after eating.)
Good job!
