300-ish: not eating, losing weight

Another update:

After the mice was rejected I left it in a small plastic container next to the snakes enclosure for almost a week. Fed the mice, of course. But let it get rather stinky...
I notice that the snake started to hang out of her hides more at night... Hmmm, I though. Let's drop the mice in and see...
BAM!
After a very careful tracing, the snake got the mice, killed within 10 sec and swallowed as fast.
I was ready to cry honestly.

So my plan now is:
get the mice 2-3 days earlier of the feeding day, let the mice permeate the air with its smell, feed the mice when the snake is out and about.
Hopefully I can replicate the earlier outcome. Fingers crossed.

That's great! Good luck feeding.

Another update:

We seemed to develop a nice little rhythm with Flora:
Mon (feeding day for everybody) she gets 1 live small mice
Thu she gets another one

Two key factors:
a) the mice should be as stinky as possible (the rest of the BP population of the room goes nuts almost every day because of the smell But it's kinda added bonus for me -- they stay outside the hides a lot!)
b) she has to be outside of her hide in "hunting mode" -- will not take it from the inside the hide

So fussy! It's a mystery how she made it to 300g to begin with.
