It's unfortunate that feeding went so bad Jen. I hate to see a rat die in that manner. Is it possible that your snake is unable to efficiently handle prey of that size or this prey was slightly larger than normal. Just a thought. I don't know what I'd have done in that circumstance to alleviate the rat's suffering and also protect my snake from bites...it's a tough call and one I've not had to deal with thank goodness.
I'd bet you dollars to donuts that the prey was too big.
