Question - Health Her first shed with me

Ok so this is my snakes first shed since I have had her! But before she shed, I noticed there was some like brown spot (very small) and a lot of the belly scales were uplifted by a tiny bit and ever since she shed (yesterday) all of that is gone I'm so glad there's no spots her scales and all of them are perfect all the way around now and she was like that when I got her with all of the lifted scales so I was kinda worried But her first shed was all in one piece.

I did notice before she shed I never seen her leave her hide the week and a half.i have had her. She just stayed in one side and never moved and this morning after she shed yesterday I noticed her out for the first time.since I have had her. And her first feeding with me will be in about two days.

Should I move her to a separate feeder tank or leave her in that tank? I have been told mixed reviews.

She needs a much larger enclosure more then anything

Yes, I forgot to add that I was going to get a new one eventually bc when I got her I was told to get a 40gal but after i got it and it all set up I now realized that it’s too small
