Maybe if you do this to a rat or something that may be different, but we were talking about mice here. So before you go critising someones advice please read the entire thread.

Being inhumane to an animal, whether feeder mouse or puppy, is still inhumane.
I'm a big advocate for humane treatment of all animals, so before you try and comment back something snide, I'll let you know I'm in for the long haul, so roll up your sleeves. 
OP, please do not shake or try and disorient your prey before feeding. Give your girl a week to rest, and offer the mouse again.
If you don't want her to get bit, offer a prekilled mouse (you can buy frozen and thaw them, or CO2 the mouse)
