While Shedding no eating?

mike3 Mar 10, 2004 07:06 PM

My moroccan is shedding around his head, and ever since he started shedding on his head he stoped eating. He bask and looks healthy but he lost 10 grams. He hasn't eaten for a little less than a week now. What should i do? Is it normal for them to stop eating while shedding?

I don't know if it's normal for everyone, since I've only had one shed so far, but my female Saharan ate and basked much less (and got mean as heck) when she was shedding.
