We got her last spring and she's been feeding fine since then. This was true until about 6 weeks ago. She started a shed so she obviously didn't eat during her shed. A week later she finished her shed and still didn't eat. She went 5 weeks without food and has started shedding again.

I've heard of Dums going off feed for extended periods but why would she be shedding again if she hasn't fed since her shed?

I'm hoping she starts to eat again after this one. Any ideas from anyone?
