My male hasn't eaten since November.

Very stressful. He's lost some weight, but I would too I guess?

As long as it's not very significant weight loss, it should be fine (or so I was told). I guess that's the good thing about this thread, you can see how others are in the same boat so it helps reduce the stress some. I still can't believe Bruce's bp didn't eat for a year and a half! And lots of november members - breeding season, I guess.

How much weight loss is too much?

I can't find the place that said it... but I read that over 20% of weight lost is too much. I thought it was in this forum that I saw that mentioned but I can't seem to find it in the search.

I have quite a few that are off feed. Some are because of breeding, and some are because they are still trying to get used to their new enclosure. I transferred them from 32 qt tubs to 41 qt tubs, and a few still have not eaten. I do not worry about it anymore unless they are loosing weight.
