How long after shedding should i try and feed?

After shedding their skin is a bit tender and they can be a bit skiddish so I usually wait till the next day.

Yep. I do have a couple of individuals who are always ravenous after a shed cycle and get fed the same day. If you touch the snake and it twitches away, let it settle into its new skin and feed it the next day. If its behavior is as usual, feel free to feed right away.
 
I feed mine on feeding day, no matter what! :D

Shed, pre-shed, whatever. If he wants to eat, he will eat! Just put the mouse back in the freezer if he doesn't want it.
 
My snake always sheds at night. In the morning I take out the shed skin and that night I feed him.

Assuming you are feeding frozen-thawed, I dont think refreezing a thawed mouse is a good idea.
