My bp went on a hunger strike that lasted since november or december. I assist fed her a pinky rat in March hoping that would get her started again, but no dice. Every time I attempted assist feeding since then she would manage to spit out the pinky so I was getting worried. Now that our weather has warmed up, and I changed out her bedding, I offered her a rat that I was sure was "too big" for her- it was close to, if not a mm bigger than the widest part of her body. Anyways, SHE STRUCK IT and it was gone in about 5 minutes. My question is, should I continue giving that size rat once a week, or should I feed her a little more often since she went so long without eating? If so, how often should I feed her now? She's about 26" long and the rat was probably 5" from nose to the base of the tail.
