Ok, so my BP went off of feed in October. Didn't really think much of it as we were going to try and breed her to our het for albino male. She started off weighing 1876grams. By December she was still refusing food, only mated once (witnessed) and had gained roughly 100 grams (we really had our fingers crossed at this time). She has since gone back down to 1825 grams currently, and still has not eaten. No huge weight loss, but nothing else either.

No eggs ever came of it. She is still active in her cage, comes out to bask, drink, goes back to hiding, sometimes even goes exploring around her cage. Just so far no desire to eat.

At what point should I be concerned?
