The hide is a good thing, but if she wasn't in a 32 until you- that could be it.

I agree that a 32qt should be a good size for her but I'd also suggest you give her a 10-14 day break without offering anything. Then offer a live Weaner Rat at night with a kibble for the rat to eat... leave the rat overnight & remove in the morning if she doesn't feed.

If that doesn't do the trick, wait another 10 days, move her to a 15qt & do the same procedure. All the Best- Deb
