    Feeding Strike :cens0r:
    So as the title stated I have a BP on strike.. So annoying.. I know that it will eventually end at some point in time but is there anything I can do to sped up the process? It started in Oct and she went 8 weeks then ate 2 weeks and she has been off since.. She was in a 20gal tank but about a month ago I moved her to a tub.. Temps are 90-92 on hot side and 78-80 on cool side, humidity is 50-55%.. She has only lost about 50 gram (she's about 1300 grams now) a hasn't she this entire time

    More of a rant than anything but if anyone has a trick up their sleeve please tell me lol

    All I recommend is patience. Mine JUST ate last night after almost a 5 month strike. I tried feeding and he possed to strike but never did. I left it in the tank overnight and it was gone this morning. I went to sleep cursing my poor BP for not eating. Ha ha..

    This seems to be a Winter thing. Mine is on his/her second hunger strike. This one much longer at 6 months and counting.
