    Off Feed plus slight weight drop...
    HI Folks,

    hope you can take a quick look at my BP. she has been in off feed for about a month and a half now... she shows interest but does not take the bite. Now based on what i read there is nothing to worry about adults off feeding... but i wanna know what is the expected weight loss.

    she dropped from 1.1 to 950ish grams.

    here are some recent pics of here. maybe you can let me know if she is too thin... unhealthy?

    She doesn't look thin to me. She actually looks pretty good.

    She looks good to me

    One of mine has been off feed since October 19th, and she's lost roughly 40 grams (estimate) since I haven't gotten her weight for this month yet.

    I wouldn't worry too much as long as she doesn't look terribly thin.(she looks fine in the photo)
    Just keep offering food.

    Depending on what size meal she was taking before, that 100g could have just been fecal and urine weight. I wouldn't worry unless she keeps dropping.
