    That time of year?

    Well, my girl BP has gone off feed, which I'm not panicking about as she's fed for me for over a year straight. Is it just the cooling temps/seasonal thing for the most part? She hasn't fed for 3 weeks, again, though I realize she can go for 2-3 months w/o much problem. When she is ready to come back, will there be any indication that she's ready to feed other than to try and offer every other week or so?

    Husbandry:

    Hot- 90-92F
    Ambient 75-77
    Humidity 60-70%

    It might be because it's mating season, or just the fact that it's the cooler months now. I would keep offering her every other week or so until she picks back up again. But that is just a theory and I am no expert.

    That's what I kinda figured... now that she's older she may slow down during cooler months. As a more experienced owner, I know now not to get as upset when she doesn't feed.... thanks for the reply.
