Give her some time alone. Sounds like she knows she is in a good home.

I've wondered about crabs having the physical ability and know how to change shells.
I watched my Zeus try to hnage shells one night and he seemed to not be able to get his abdomen out of the old shell

. I wasn't sure if he might be stuck or just didn't know what he was doing. Although he did chnage out of his painted shell as soon as we brought him home back around the first of the year.
