Pyro feeding problem?

mbdorfer Nov 12, 2005 12:07 PM

Hey there Pyro keepers.Just wondering if your pyros tend to go off feed for any length of time. Mine will feed weekly for like 2 months and then refuse food for a month sometimes 2! She seems to be healthy but shows no interest in food from time to time. She is about 3'long and I've had her for about a year and a half. Her last meal was Oct 12 and she is refusing again today. Should I be concerned? I have no intention of breeding her, she's just a "pet". Thanks. Here's a recent pic.

Mind if I ask who it's from?

I'm sorry to say that I don't know the breeder. I bought her in early 04 at an expo. It was the first show I ever attended and I was so excited to find her, I didn't pay attention who I was buying from. She is an extremely shy animal and a great "pet" type. Just hard to feed sometimes.
