So my '10 Spider Female that I picked up from CL in November has been off food for the past few weeks and is starting to losing some weight. I am posting the activity report from Degei Husbandry Database for the entire time I have had her. I figure it might be more 'enlightening' to know previous activity as well.

As a note, I was told originally that she was a 'he'. so you will see me refer to her as 'him' in the notes.

End Activity Report for: 10SF2

Mainly wondering if I should be worried yet or make another vet visit. I haven't been worried that she has been off food being that is what 'they' do from time to time until I weighed her today. I have been trying to get a weight on a regular basis though to check for weight change.

Also should be noted that she is being kept in a steralite tub with the proper temps and humidity. It is kept dark at all times so no hide was given after mid-December. No abnormal roaming. No wheezing, open mouth breathing, or mites. When she first went off food, she seemed interested at first, but then turned away. Since then, she has had no interest at all. Have tried live, pre-killed, and F/T. Even set some mice in a box near an air hole for about an hour to try and entice a 'feed mode'. I have not tried scenting yet as I wasn't worried about it before.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
