Hello Bill,



The first thing I would suspect is parasites and I would treat accordingly. If you don't do your own fecals, then I would get a sample off to your nearest Herp Vet.



In the meantime, do your best to syringe feed her. If you gently stroke the bottom of her chin, most times they will open their mouth so you can put the syringe in to feed her.



I would also check the temps in the enclosure, making sure it is warm enough on the hot side and cool enough on the cool side (92 hot side - low 80's cool side).



Lori
