I don't think its the "butt first" thing, because you would notice the back end of the rat being all slimy...
Could it be that she is preparing to go into shed ? Bloods often have such a strong feeding/striking response that she may strike first, only to realize she doesn't actually want to eat ?
Either that, or could there be something wrong with those rats? Are you warming them the same exact way as always ?
I'd wait a few days, try again and as soon as she takes it, turn off the lights and leave the room. Don't even check until a couple of hours later or next morning.
Who knows with those snakes, LOL. Especially being a female. You just never, ever know what's going on up there, LMAO !!
