Well, first off, what are the temps in the cage? Hot side and cool side?
Second, how old is she and how much does she weigh?
Third, what are you feeding her, and how often?

Your temps sound ok, I typically keep my hognose with an ambient of 85 or so, so you could try bumping it up a little and see if it helps.
Also, 10g seems pretty small for a 8 month old female, does she usually eat well or does she have a history of eating poorly?

i got her in february and she took a couple weeks to start eating but since then shes been eating every time i offered food until a week ago. also before i got her the records the breeder had showed she ate perfectly fine.

Also, when did she last shed? I’ve got a couple snakes (not hoggies) that I rarely realize are blue, so I only know when I find the finished shed.

turns out right after i sent that last message i checked on her and the mouses tale was sticking out of her mouth, i was thinking shed too, she hasnt shed since late february early march, i can see the blue in her eyes when she sheds. but at least she ate!
