Off feed frustration

Okay, I know an "off feed" period is normal for lots of balls this time of year. I was hoping my snake would be one of the exceptions to the rule, but like Murphy's Law, she's been off feed since the end of January. She's a yearling that fed like crazy right up until she stopped. Then, that internal switch flipped.

How long do these spells typically last?

I continue to offer food weekly, just to tempt her. What she doesn't eat goes to my other python--a blood.

Honestly, this is frustrating. Normal, I'm sure, but still frustrating.
