Hi y'all-
A couple months ago, I moved back to Chicago, and since then my sweet Madoka hasn't eaten. Originally I (stupidly) had her terrarium near a window, which I've since moved across the room away from the window, but she still hasn't eaten even after moving her. She seems to have lost some weight as well. One thing I've noticed is that she's been behaving a little oddly, bumping up against the glass all the time. She's normally pretty active, but it's almost obsessive. The end of her snoot is even a little "callused", which I only noticed very recently.
Since I moved her, temps have been good. Cool side was 78 and warm side was 83 last I checked. Her last shed was totally complete, and I feel like she might be due to shed soon but doesn't look like she's about to or anything. I had been feeding her frozen rat pups (thawed obviously), which previously had never been an issue. I've also never had an issue feeding her on a weekly basis before. Her tank is a 30 gallon breeder (18"x36" footprint), so I don't think that the tank is too small or anything.
I've tried to feed her multiple times, and she's acted completely disinterested whereas before she would go for the rat pup immediately. I'm concerned that something bigger is the issue here. I'm admittedly pretty worried. I appreciate any help!!
