Hey Ally - here is my reply to another recent similar thread.

This results in the meal rotting in the snakes belly eventually killing it.

So dont stress. It is quite normal.

All this of course assumes that you haven;t changed any of your caging circumstances recently and that you are maintaining adequate temperatures. Also that you haven't placed a small snake in a large cage thus stressing the crap out of it. That will also stop it eating.
