She is close to a year old if not a year old. They estimated her age at 3 months when I bought her in December. She is not yet 2 feet long, longer than 1.5 feet, but she isn't very big girth wise so we upgraded to larger pinkies, but not fuzzy mice. Afraid of regurgitation (should we be worried)? She has NEVER refused food before. She is in a 20 long tank. She has hides on both ends. The warm end is at 80-82 with a black night heat light and a heater mat on that end. The cool end hovers at 70-75. She always has moist moss that we keep in a separate water dish, which is her favorite hide. She has a wooden climb toy and some fake plants. We left her be yesterday and day before, thinking she needed some time to shed if that's what she was going to do, but we find no shed. We got her out today, gave her a 'shed bath' with shed ease by zilla. Her eyes are bright, she's strong. She appears healthy. We're going to try to feed her again tonight. We've always warmed the pinkies in water, do you think she may not like that anymore and is there a better way? I have no idea what to do with her! (Call her a 'her' because she is very narrow at the tail, it's an educated guess). should we go get fuzzies, maybe she doesn't like a small meal?? Thank you!!!!!
