I have this female southern hog that was wildcaught last summer and laid 13 eggs on Aug. 13th and she ate all September and October on f/t anole scented rat pinks and f/t anoles but stopped eating in November and hasn't eaten since. She is still very alert and hisses and moves quick,but how long can she go before I should consider force feeding. I don't want to stress her out by force feeding,but will do what I have to. She was brumated for 2 months and I've offered every food item known to man since brumation and she just hisses at the food. Sorry about the dark pic,shes lost quite a bit of weight and is completely flattened out in this pic. Thanks,Kevin
