I'm glad she ate for you. Hatchling rainbows can often start right off on pinkie rats or rat pups. If she was eating 3 pinkie mice before, one rat pup a week should be fine. If she'll eat rats, I'd stick to feeding her those: it'll keep you from having to switch her over later.
If she likes to soak in her waterbowl, you'll want one that she can get a good soak in but not have to swim in.
Also, I would recommend two hides: one on the warmer side and one on the cooler side of the enclosure.
See how her shed comes out: you might want to get her a moist hide (moss box).

Hey. Thanks I have a moist hide in there for now till she is done shedding. after she's done shedding im going to take the habba tree out I dont think she really needs it she stay's to her self in the hide or on the ground. And put another hide in there. i doubt she climbs. she still stays to herself for the most part. cant wait till next week,hopefully a better feeding response or who knows

If you believe that your humidity is right, which is usually the cause of a bad shed with either BRBs or CRBs, you might put in a water container large enough for them to soak.
