    Hey steve, has there been any temperature changes in your area lately? And has she ever been paired with a male?

    Hmm hard to sya, your ambient temps are a little high but imagine that's normal temps for you so if she is an avid eater than it wouldn't explain the fast. It may be nothing. As they become adults, I find unexplained fasts aremore common.
