New and Unexpected Sheading

I purchased a baby corn snake this morning round about 930 their records show that they had him for at least 3 months. Last meal according to their records was 8-05-13 said to have 3 pinkies. Quick examination before purchase looks to be in good shape. I got her home and this evening round about seven o clock she s*** her skin to my surprise. Normally I would give my new arrival several days to adjust, so my question to you is do I wait at seven days for the adjustment or do I attempt to feed her knowing that she is hungry coming off of a sheading cycle.
 
I would wait the 7 days. They can go a long time without eating and it's better to let them have that week of settling in.
 
I'd wait till next weekend to feed her. She's probably been blue and hiding, and came out and shed and thought, What the heck! Well, she must look a lot prettier than when you brought her home!
