I suppose I'll come back with a report on the fuzzies come Sunday and the vet a week after. Ideally, she will down them without any input of my own and nothing will unusual will happen.
(sigh)
She still scares me.

You're very welcome.
Vet? Is there a health problem present? Less is usually more when it comes to new acquisitions, so unless you KNOW something is wrong or you're dealing with a WC animal that requires treatment for parasites, you may want to save your money and avoid stressing her out with the unnecessary visit or that rubbing/settling in period that seems to have you concerned may last a bit longer. Some "exotic" vets will administer unnecessary prophylactic antibiotics/medications that can have adverse effects. She looks healthy, she has already eaten for you, and is acting quite normal from the sounds of things...the only irregularity I see here is that the breeder let her go without any feedings which is a very poor practice but thankfully wasn't an issue in this case...so I would definitely advise against the vet visit here...
Just my experience.
