lol you can feed during shed if the snake will take it, the snake doesn't usually take it though, if you are drastic to feed it feed it when the milky eyes go clear just before shedding it will usually take it then but you may as well just wait. if you keep the snake well and the humidity is right then a lump in your snakes stomach will not affect shed as the old skin is just as stretched as the new, remember that old skin used to get stretched during feeding to. but if your snake has dry skin then there is a possibility during the shed process that it will catch on the lump and you will have to assist with the process. though yes i would suggest just waiting for it all to be over with and then throwing it a feed.
