    I do continue to offer food during the winter breeding season, but I drop to only offering every other week for the adults. I don't like to waste f/t rodents, and I don't like to waste my time trying to entice animals that don't want to eat.

    But that big girl of yours, I'd let her eat if she wants it. I'd probably offer two rats once a week instead of one every three days. How old is she?
    She's an 05'. She laid in 08' and 10'. She's just looking for food everytime I get near the rack. She's locked up again with my spider and she was looking for food since she seen me feeding the others. Normally when shes locked its like shes in a coma but not this time.
