How much longer till you think I should start to worry?

[sookieball]

So my little bumblebee lady weighed in at just under 1000 grams. A few months ago.
And well hasn't eaten since early October. I actually believe it's been a few weeks before than but I lost my note book so I can't know for sure.
She hasn't lost much weight but she isn't active at all.. Just sits on her warm spot and cool spots and that's about it.. Seems totally normal and healthy just not eating..
I do happen to remember that she took one mouse about 2 months ago..
But no idea why she isn't eating.. I thought maybe because she is in the same room as my 2 breeding males and 2 breeding females. But I don't have anywhere else I can keep her during the season so..

I'll update later with a picture.. I know how we all love bees and more pictures. :-D

She hit the 1000 gram wall!!!!

We all dread it and pray that it doesn't happen to us.. Unfortunately, many females will eat and grow like weeds and you think they're going to get to breeding size fast but then...

DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNN....

Somewhere between 900-1200 grams they decide food just isn't the "in" thing anymore..

Don't worry.. It's the combination of being the cold season (breeding season) and her being that dreaded weight that is causing this. She will start eating again before you know it. Just keep offering!

Yep! My pastel just took her second meal in 11months last week. She got to about 1100g and just quit eating. I was tearing my hair out!

@foshi
Thanks, yeah she used to be my garbage desposal.
Frozen thawed, pre killed, mouse, rat, alive or not. Didn't matter. Guess your right. Hit 1000 and went on a diet.
Luckily my Mojave lady didn't stop eating and is now glowing as she continues to eat and pair with my 900gram male butter :-) and she is only now past her second winter and 1400grams+
I don't know if she'll actually lay for me but whatever. Its up to her.
As promised, here is the stubborn bee.

I was praying that my 09 pastel girl would be ready to breed this season when she too hit the wall at 1200 grams. She hasn't eaten since October and will sit this year out as well. Then I have my 2010 Albino girl who is a few grams shy of 1500, go figure...at least she'll be ready to go next year! I wouldn't worry about your girl, she'll come around when she's ready!

my normal is being a punk too, she was almost 1000g and BAM, has refused every week since the end of september, my pastel just hit 1000g and last week was her first refusal, but 4 days later she went blue, so hopefully this was just an "in shed refusal"

Both my spider and albino girls stopped eating right at 1300 grams. SO ANNOYING to have it happen so close to breeding size! Luckily my spider snapped out of it (knock on wood) and is pounding rats harder than she ever has before. Still waiting on the albino, though.
