Off feed and lathargic

I have one snake that is a little over a year old which has gone off feed for a few months and is very lethargic. By lethargic, I mean she just seems limp when I pick her up. I suppose like any other living animal some sort of internal problem may have developed. I don't suspect an infection or infestation as no other snake in my collection is having problems. I have had her since a hatchling and just can't imagine what would be the problem.

I'd recommend checking the temps (Make sure that there's a proper gradient, with a high end of 90F incase she's sick), taking a stool sample to the vet to check for parasites. As well as trying more extreme measures to get her to feed. What steps have you taken trying to get her to feed?
