So, it's the normal thing. She might only eat one rat every other week until spring, or she just might not eat at all for a few months... it's perfectly normal. If she continues to refuse food, I'd drop to offering every 10 days, or even every 14 days, just to save your sanity. Don't sweat it if she doesn't eat even then.

Sounds like she's throwing your rat breeding plans for a loop, though.

Keep an eye on her weight--if she drops more than 25-30% of her current weight, then you can begin worrying.
i was going to give another week and then take her to my vets to get her weight 3 week ago she was over 1lb. and
thanks
