what are their weights? Are you breeding them?



I have had a couple females that hit 1000-1200 g and then stopped eating. After 3 months I couldn't get them interested if food. Finally, I threw a male in with them. After they bred, the were voracious eaters and would eat anything in site. After they quickly gained another 400-500 they slowed down a bit and one of them just ovulated.



Maybe they just want to sow their oats...
