 HELP!!!

I just recently acquired a corn snake, which is a year old and believed to be a female, however the 1st fuzzie (mouse) I gave it it digested it fine, but the second mouse I gave it it regurgitated it. I was really worried as it has been the first time it has ever done, even before I acquired it. It has not changed the size of the mouse. I have listed possible causes for the snake to be regurgitated:
1. temperature
2. spoiled mouse (off)
3. not fully digested the previous mouse, however after 1st mouse it pooped a day after it was consumed

Can anyone help me with tips and what I should do and stories if what other people have experienced.

 HELP!!!

Just a few questions for you that might help. :)

How many days after the first fuzzy did you feed the second?

Did you handle the snake right before, during, or after it ate the 2nd fuzzy? She could have been stressed from something.

Where did you get the fuzzys? How long did you have it sitting out before feeding? Are you sure it was thawed out all the way?

What is the temp of her cage and how big is it?

 HELP!!!

wait 10-14 days (skip a feeding) and then offer a smaller than usuall meal, in this case a pinky. If he keeps it down after 3 days then you are good. Wait another 2-3 days and offer a fuzzy again.
