Once my snakes are large enough to eat hopper mice I then feed them in there Viv or tub on aspen. I make sure the mouse is dry (I defrost in hot water) and offer it to the snake on the end of tongs by the tail. At this point it can vary quite a bit. Some will grab and wrap while others just nonchalantly start swallowing the mouse. I also have ones that like their privacy so I'll place the food item on a deli top and leave it.
Ok. I will try with the separate tank then. She strikes and grabs it away but rarely constricts. If she's half in the hide she'll drag it in there and eat in peace (while swallowing aspen [emoji20]). I think she should be ok I the separate tank. We'll see
