Do non-sexually mature BP's refuse food due to winter/breeding season?

Mine had the same problem around a month ago, I took that into consideration that it was breeding season, but come to find out, she had a mite! After I treated her and her cage she picked up eating again.

I CONSTANTLY check my BP for mites and I don't think that is the problem. At this point I am justing guessing she just didn't want to eat but will eat next week.

Damn mites scare me though....I worry she will "get them" just like I am terrified we will get bed bugs!
