Hello everyone,
I bought a beautiful atb about a month or so ago. She is a lovely mango colored one. Anywho, i fed her 2 pinkies, a week after i got her. She ate them fine. But, a few days later, she regurgetated both pinkies. I was alittle worried but i thought that maybe it was too much. Soo about halfway through the week, we changed her tank to a 24 by 26 by 36 (i think) glass enclousure. The saturday after changing her tank, we tried to feed her a pinky but this time she refused it. We left it on a branch by her favorite hide out but she didnt eat it even after 2 days. A week goes by and she still does not eat the pinky i offered her. In the middle of the third week, we had to change her tank due to how hard it was to keep the humidity up in the huge tank. We put her in a tub and the humidity is right around 60-80. Again, i offered her a pinky and she refused. i offered her about 3 pinkies during the week, she refused them all. I even left each in there for a matter of days. My brother put her in a little tub and said it would help her feed, i went down stairs and saw the pinky still in the tub. I have no idea what to do now. I would be SOOOO greatful if someone could help me.

Other info- She is about 2 months old now, about 2 feet long, the temp is right around 70 degrees. She is a captive bred.

I would be greatful if you could please let me in on some tips about feeding atbs. Thanks!
