Thanks for the reply, the first picture I posted the snake was coiled up and that discoloration was really prominent. I did notice the dehydration at the store, (wrinkly neck) but didn't know what it was. The feeding chart indicated that she ate a mouse 2 weeks ago, so I attempted to feed her as soon as I got her home before I put her in the enclosure. I expected that she may be too stressed to eat at that point, but I wanted to offer it to her because it had been so long since she ate. I'm going to let her get used to the new enclosure for a few days and then try feeding again. I think I'll go back up and take a second look at their enclosure too and see if there is anything that could have caused a stain. I'm sure they've cleaned hers out already, but I'll check out the others. All the snake enclosures were similar.

Two suggestions - one, wait a full week, and don't handle her, before trying to feed. Let her have time to adjust to the new environment without stress. I recently fed one of mine the day after I got her home... but she was incredibly comfortable and laid back, and was very interested when she caught a whiff of mouse on my way to feed the others. The second suggestion is, from what you said there it sounds like you you tried to feed her outside the cage. Don't do that - feed her inside the cage. It's less stress to her, and there's really no reason not to.
