Anyone else having trouble with females not eating?

My adult female normal weighing in at 2200 stopped eating in the beginning of January, and I got her to eat again this past monday. She only lost 12g, so 200 is a big drop. Are you sure that you weighed her on an empty stomach..? Possibly you weighed her after feeding so you had the weight of the food in there as well.

When they go off feed Ill decrease offerings to every 2 - 3 weeks, and off with a weanling rat or something much much smaller than normal food. Once they take the easy opportunity and are in feeding mode then put in their normal size prey and they should take it instantly. This has always worked for me.

Well, after looking back at my records I did weigh her 4 days after feeding and she defecated almost 2 weeks after that, so I guess she really didn't loos 200 grams. She does not appear to have lost that much. She is still round and I can't see her spine. She is active at her usual times. She seems really normal. The only difference I can tell is that she just doesn't feel quite as firm as she did. It's been about a week since I weighed her last. With this being said do you think I should be worried? I'm thinking to monitor her weight real close for another week or 2??? I do keep her temps and humidity a little higher right now and also I have been looking for any signs of mites or RI and haven't noticed anything.

Here is a picture I just took of her. I normally feed her f/t medium rats. I am thinking of trying an adult live mouse.http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15...119e1d113c.jpghttp://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/15...331a4a67c7.jpg
