Feeding new corn snake questions

Hey all, I bought a female baby Amel corn snake on Friday. She's EXTREMELY shy and a little aggressive, she only comes out at night when ALL of the lights are out. Other than that, she stays in her hide. My question is, when I attempt to feed her for the FIRST time this Friday, should i move her to a seperate feeding container? Dont want to add more stress to the snake.
 
If feeding frozen/thawed or pre-killed food, just move her to the separate container with the food , toss a black or dark towel over it and leave her alone, no peeking, no disturbance til the next morning. Then carefully very carefully (move s l o w l y) pick her up gently and place back in her home, and leave her alone for 72 hours to digest.
 
i have a small critter keeper type container that i put kiyo in to feed her. as she grows i will adjust container size accordingly. when my Rune was alive, i would place him in a large sterilite tub to feed him and it worked well.
 
Keep in mind that Corn Snakes, especially babies, spend most of their time hiding.
Also keep in mind that albino snakes are sensitive to bright light.
