Actually the first spot is male, second is female, and third is unsexed.

Slow down.

You haven't even got your first snake to eat yet and you've got the idea of a potential new one in your head.

About what kind of milksnake you own, look up the taxonomy of the various subspecies you think she is. That should give you pics of what size and how many scales are in and around the head area. That is the better way than just guessing based off looks.

Lastly, to get your snake to eat. Don't handle it as much. Attempt to feed her again in 5 days and see how it goes.

Already gave up on that boa. I'm gonna get a python or a boa eventually but not yet. She is a Red. If handling was the problem, why would she get almost all of the mouse in and then spit it out? I didn't handle her before feeding.

Just a thought, and i may be wrong so please dont take offence, when you fed her were you hanging around her viv watching her?

My BP is a shy feeder, if i let him strike the rat and then walk away he will eat fine, if i hang around his viv or try to get pics he will most often leave the prey and come back to it overnight - its just a thought

Well, there's a dead mouse in the freezer now because I didn't know what else to do with it since Penelope spat it out. So I guess I might as well start buying frozen mice lol
