Hey all, a little concerned about the weight of our juvenile BP. We've had her for a month and she's only eaten one pinkie, on the first out of 3 attempts (we try once a week). I've got peach fuzzies coming tomorrow - she's definitely too girthy for pinkies - and we'll attempt to feed her again then. I know that being that she just came home a few weeks ago, and with the winter season, that isn't unusual for them to go off food for a little while, but just want to see what everyone's thoughts are.
Here she is pictured next to a Bic lighter for size reference, currently tipping the scales at 56 grams. I feel like she's definitely a little thin but don't know if she has a shed coming or if she's just a finicky BP. Thoughts?
EDIT: I don't think it's a habitat issue...ambient temp is about 83 degrees and the heat pad is 91F. Humidity is about 60%, plenty of hide space.
