    climate affecting eating?

    My 08 girl has always been a pretty good eater. She weighs about 350 grms and has always eaten f/t consistently, typically small rats.

    Well 3 weeks ago that stopped. She just as NO interest, and has rejected 3 rats in a row. She seems active at night, but is typically holed up in her hides all day. I even tried dipping the last one in chicken broth.

    Her husbandry seems okay, 82 on the cool side and 89-90 on the warm side. Humidity has been a bit low and I am working on that. I am also going to drive down the road and pick up some "fresh" frozen rats as maybe she will like those better.

    The "pet store guy" said his personal bp's frequently start to fast in the winter, but she is still a baby, and I have not heard many others here say their young bp's fast during the winter months. Should I be concerned?
