Her temp and humidity are always good and I have always used mercury vapor bulbs. They are checked by gauges I have in her cage. When she was a baby she ate a lot of silk worms and earthworms, as she got older I switched her to pre killed mice. She was doing great until just lately she has begun to reject the mice and will only eat a couple of earthworms. She stopped eating those also about 2 weeks ago. Last night I decided to give her waxworms (we call them her candy). She ate all of them. So to my relief at least I got some food in her. She has never layed eggs or been gravid. I am getting a little curious that maybe she picked up a parasite or worms from the mice as that can be common. I just thought it was strange that all this has been happening since she lost her roommate.

Thanks for your thoughts!
