California King Snake not eating

[Millerj98]

Hello,

As the title states my king snake is not eating. I've had her for about 6 months now and she has always eaten fine. She recently shedded about 2 weeks ago and has eaten once since then. I tried to feed her again yesterday on Thanksgiving because she was acting like she was hungry ( darting her head to follow my movements and hands) like she always has. However when I actually put defrosted mouse in her cage she isn't interested. I always hold it with tongs by the tail and dangle it in front of her and she usually slowly takes her striking position and then grabs it. This time she looks like she takes interest then as she gets close to the mouse she backs off and if I try to reintroduce it she slithers away. Right now I set the mouse on her log to see if she will eat it on her own but I don't have high hopes. Please can someone give me some pointers on how to get her to eat.
