Keep her old substrate and definitely have lots of hiding places especially those that have her scent on them.Lots of her old toys,use the same basic supplies that she had in her old cage,etc.Perhaps keep her sand/potty area with the same old sand.

One idea is to connect both cages with a playpen and allow free roaming between those,which may be less stressful than simply putting her in the new cage right away.
