I think she needs to eat more too.

Originally the people who had her were only feeding her 2 mice, once every couple of weeks. My wife and I moved that up to 2 mice every 10 days, but it looks like we should move it up to weekly and do 3.
We only give her one mouse at a time.

As far as her enclosure, she has the same cage. The people who gave us to her gave her everything to go with it (cage, heating pad, hiding places (one in cool and one under the heating pad) and water dish and branch she can climb on.

She is roughly 3 feet long.

Maybe she's telling us she's hungry?

My wife is going to try and take her out today while the kids are gone and the house is calm. I'll be picking up 3 good size mice today on the way home from work for her.

Any other suggestions are DEEPLY APPRECIATED.

Thank you!
