snake feeding question

I went in for round 1 to try and feed my snake, and i think there was a little too much camotion 2 chicks watching it.... <--explains itself... because he was very skittish and kinda sketchy... no about 3-4 hours later, the same day the snake is out and about in his cage, i know how rodent scent stays in the cage long... should i try and feed him now that hes extremely aware and on the prowl?

I'm certainly not an expert, but I don't see how it could hurt. Definitely cut out the commotion. FWIW, mine seems to prefer hunting with the lights out.

Yeah you can try again one more time, if it still fails on that attempt i would wait a week before trying again.
