Then give her a week off from everything. No feeding attempts, handling, nothing. Just take a peek every day or two. After that time, try a live hopper just after sunset. Toss it in there quietly, close her back up & check in an hour or so. If she didn't eat it, then remove it & give her another 3-4 days off & try again. If that doesn't work, try a brainded hopper & leave it in overnight. Then maybe come chicken broth on a live hopper. The biggest thing is patience. If these methods or many others if people will chime in, don't work in the next 3 weeks then more drastic measures may have to be taken. Such as assist feeding. Make sure to treat all of them for parasites ASAP. A proper dose of Metronidazol may help her feeding response.
