I have a female columbian who is about 3 months old. She is going through a every sloppy shed right now. There aren't any mites and the humidity should not have caused a shed as it's been relatively stable. However, I believe that the stress of her shipment to me as well as a bad decision on my part (i fed her after her eyes cleared) may have caused the bad shed. Be that as it may, it has been 11 days since she has eaten. Since she is already in a bad shed, should I attempt to feed her? Her skin feels loose on her body and I don't want her to be under fed. I soak her in water for about an hour (give or take) every night and it seems like some of the areas that were not shedding are beginning to. SO: to feed or not to feed? Thanks folks, any and all advice appreciated.
