Feeding while shedding

Hello all, I asked this question in the Lampropeltis section but didn't get much response so I thought I'd ask again. I was wondering if snakes can have a hard time eating larger prey while shedding. My MBK only ate half her fuzzy last week and left the other half uneaten. Neither of my snakes have ever done this before. I've just recently moved her up from pinkies and she's eaten fuzzys 2-3 times before. The only thing I could think of was her skin wasn't stretching enough to get it down. And she started tail end first. This ever happen to anyone else?
