I found this girl a while back and she had this problem that you can see in the picture. Does anyone know what this is? Im getting a little worried. She hasnt eaten in 5 months despite trying everything in the book, including brained pinkies. She dropped some babies a few weeks after I picked her up, and now she's getting extremely thin. I applied antibiotics a few times, but it doesnt seem to do any good. Should I keep this up on a more regular basis (every day), or try something else?

Also, any suggestions on getting her to eat would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
