Could be. Have you tried leaving f/t in cage at night & staying away until morning? Seems like fear (either of prey, or of you, or both) keeps freaking her out & cancelling
out her hunger.

How often have you been trying to feed? (best not to offer more than once a week, just makes 'em more nervous)
