If she's a spider, it's probably just the wobble. If it's not causing her not to eat at all, she's fine. From what I understand (I don't yet have a spider/spider combo) they get excited when being offered food and can miss. She should get better as she gets older and has more experience. Or maybe not and it'll always just take her a few tries to get it right.

There is an approx. prey size list. The food should be around 10-15% of the snakes weight.
Another rule of thumb is, "no bigger around than the snake".
It may also help to warm up the prey's face a bit more than the rest of the body so the snake keys in on the head.
