If she has good weight on her I wouldn't get worried. If shes a year old you should be able to force feed her a f/t large pink with little effort. Gently rub the f/t pinky on the sides of her mouth untill she opens and then stick the head in and keep pushing gently and lay her back in the cage. If she spits it back out you might have to hold her mouth closed for a minute and work the pink down a little. I would try lots of feeding methods though before resorting to force feeding,even f/t toads. Good Luck! Kevin
