Missed feeding

Is it normal for my snake to miss a feeding. I wasn't sure if it shedded or not so that might be why. Thanks for your opinion :)
 
Depends upon the snake. For some of mine, missing a meal or even two is a normal occurance, especially before shed. For others, missing a meal is extremely unusual.

Most of mine have skipped a feeding or two at some point, usually the week or two before they shed.

Snakes are usually very hungry after they shed, so I'd offer her a meal.
 
Some snakes will eat during shed, some won't. My friends boa never will touch a meal during shed, I on the other hand have never had a problem with this.
