Question

I have just purchased a female pastel ball python. The people that I purchased her from said that she ate two days before I got her which is great because that falls on my feeding schedule for the rest of my snakes. When cleaning her cage found a fuzzy mouse in the bedding, so I take it that she didn't eat. So on feeding day I gave her a fuzzy live. The size is good for her not to large, but when tried to swallow, she some how fold the head over and so she couldn't get it down. So after a while watching her struggle with this, I had to remove the mouse so she could breathe, I did this as gentle as I could. I gave her a couple days and offer her a F/T pinky which she showed no interest. Tried it again couple later and noticed she moved it but not eat it. Today is feeding day for the rest of the guys, so I offered her a fuzzy and she sat there watching it. I'll leave it with her overnight and see happens. Should I not worried and keep offering her food or should I schedule a vet appointment which I have limited access too?

Sorry the long post just wanted to cover the details.
