Well I found out why my W. Hog wasn't eating....

She reverted himself back to toads.

Heres the backstory. Got her In August as a baby. She ate a pinky every week until Oct 28th. Didn't eat again until December 28th (I rubbed a toad on it). Tried feeding regular pinks again until last week, nothing. Rubbed a toad on it. BANG took two. Today, I fed her a pinky. Nothing. Went to the pet store, rubbed a toad on it. Within 30 seconds, Bang! She is looking skinny from all those months without eating so I'm going to feed her a pinky (toad scented) every week until she gains weight and then try to just feed regular pinks again.

Has a hog ever done this to anyone before? I really don't mind if it "only" eats scented, because I scent 10 or so and then freeze them, but I'd rather have her eat regular pinks.
