My mali Ra took almost 2 weeks before he started eating. Covering up the enclosure does work well, they need some privacy when they eat (mine still doesn't like me looking at him when he eats). Maybe some bee pollen sprinkled on her food might entice her to eat, just to get her started. She'll probably fall into her own eating pattern from there, gradually increasing her own food intake until she's comfortable. Don't worry though, it takes time and a lot of patience. Believe me, I know, I've been there not that long ago :)
Plus, the people on here are wonderful about giving good advice to us newbies :)
