If you know these details about how the feeding went, I'd suspect that you're in the snake's personal space and the snake isn't comfortable feeding because of it. Almost always, timid/new feeders want seclusion at eating time. Also, no handling until it eats, be sure the enclosure itself is suitable and not too large, etc.

Exactly what was the pink scented with when feeding for the breeder? That's what I'd try. I'd also find out exactly what the feeding procedure was (in a deli cup/plastic bag/moist hide, overnight/daytime, scented PK or FT, etc.
