Why does my jungle corn suck at hunting?

I dont know whats wrong Ive been trying to feed my snake for like 2 hours and she shows interest but she misses every single time. She hits it but can hold on. I have tryed braining and I have tried leaving it in with her but she wont even attempt to eat it unles I shake the pinky. Shes about 1 1/2 months old and on teusday she missed a couple of times but not this badly. Do you guys have any suggestions?

While it isn't uncommon for snakes to miss, if she's releasing after she's hit it, then she's not wanting to eat it for one reason or another. From what you describe, it sounds more like she isn being defensive towards it, rather than hungry. Is she going in to a shed?
