    It's hard to understand what your saying. If I got this right you want to know why she stopped eating. My guess is you fed her as much as she would eat. Give her a week and try feeding her once a week and a good size prey item.

    It's not common for a youngster to go on winter fasts. Especially 2x in a year. I would actually double check your husbandry and temps. What are hot side cool side temps and how are you measuring them?
    I've never had a youngster go off food. Most females will hit A wall at about 1000g and boys can go of feed if being bred in the winter as low as around 500g. Although a male that small I would stop breeding if he did that.
    Anyways what I'm trying to say is that does not sound like normal fasting. Jmho
