So my adult pastel female won't eat, and we have just hit the three month point, and while I know this isn't an issue I know from the person I got her from that she was off feed a few months prior to my getting her because of breeding season. I'm not too worried, since she hasn't lost any dramatic weight, BUT I am getting frustrated! At this point, she should have eaten something and I'm assuming she hasn't been eating because she was an ASF eater before I got her and well.... I live in California where I cannot find a stinkin ASF of any kind. As far as I know it's even illegal to get their bedding GAH.

So, any tips?

I've tried:
Every size of mouse, live, P/K and F/T.
Left in P/K overnight
Braining
Pre-scenting
Dangling, zombie dancing, every sort of mouse-maneuver I can think of

She's in a rack system run by thermostat, so temps are 70s-high 80s, with a hotspot of 90. Her humidity is a bit high right now because of my weather, running between 60-70. She's in a smallish tub with a hide, and has been for a solid month and a half, before that she was in a tank with blacked out walls. She's not shy, but we haven't been handling her too much just in case she's insecure. She gets somewhat interested... but then never strikes.

Anywho, I'm not posting to get everyone to analyze my set-up, but I'm asking for hints and tips for those who cannot acquire ASFs that need to switch a problem eater. I want to figure this out BEFORE it becomes an issue and she begins to loose weight.

Thanks.
