Nice female, and welcome to the forum; also, welcome to the addicting world of ball pythons
I have noticed that with my snakes, they tens to not eat as reliably while in shed, so I have stopped feeding at that time. I just think it is a stressful time for them, and I also have a theory that the added bulk of the food item could possibly make shedding a little harder; not that this is backed up by any scientific evidence, but it seems logical to me Also, when i did feed during shed, it seemed like my snakes either refused to eat or had sloppy, uncoordinated strikes if they tried; I just let them relax now til shed time is over.
