thanks rattay,as an update she has been making up for lost time in the eating department at least.She spends more time up and active than she normally would as well.Up first thing and still mooching around when I get home from work,normally she was bedded down for the night unless laying eggs.The weather has also been briliant for her,heaps of warm rain which is most unusual as we are meant to be in mid summer with jan/feb being our hottest months with temps up to 95F.The humidity has been really high which she must be enjoying.Normally I have to use a sprinkler by now.I think what may have happened is she got into a dry spot and maybe went into a state of estivation rather than hibernation?Don`t know that much about it but someone may do?cheers.
