For future times, you should not attempt to feed till after the snake has had time to get used to its new environment.

Right now if you are going to move the snake, move it. Then allow it a few days to get used to its new environment without disruption.

After a few days you can attempt to feed again, and should have more luck.

Additionally I would suggest after getting the snake to feed, working on switching it over to pre-killed or frozen thawed.
I personally feed in the cage as I feel this is the safest method.
