it's possible that this could be normal off-feed behavior some BPs exhibit. If so, as long as it's not losing weight (you must actually weigh not eye it) then you should be fine.

However, the possiblity that your BP is stressed due to incorrect housing should not be ignored. I think if you can rule that out then it's probably safe to assume it's normal off-feed behavior. I worry (especially with new owners & I'm not sure if you are new to bp ownership) immediately jump to the conclusion that it's normal off-feed behavior and ignore the other possibility and possibly creating big problems later (and vet bills). If there are problems with your setup that can lead to stress, illness and going off-feed. If your willing, more information would be needed regarding your housing and parameters to help rule that out.

Info such as:
age of bp
cage size
# hides & where
temps on warm and cool side
where and with what are you measuring temps
how long have you had
what was it eating and how long ago since last meal
what are you trying to feed now
how are sheds
weight history
how is heat provided
(pics of setup would help)
