Is this a recent thing - if so do you think she might be going into shed? That can make them grumpy; they hiss at anything.

Ah right, then it's not that. She sounds like a bit of a madam ...have you tried feeding last thing at night, warming the prey of course, but simply putting it in the cool end for her to smell and find by herself overnight? This is what I'm trying next time with my fasting lot who ought to be eating by now except the weather's so cold I can't blame them for thinking it's still winter lol. They are awkward little gits sometimes - good luck with her!
