Hi all! I've been reading here and elsewhere that males seem to go off feed at this time of year because of mating season. We bought our corn, Zaya, as a (supposedly) sexed female and she has refused to eat her mice the past 2 weeks. We're worried because she hasn't refused to eat since we first got her 2 years ago as a tiny thing. Do females ever go off food at this time of year also?

She seems very active, healthy, and strong. She looks very female to us, but could the people who sexed "her" have made a mistake because she was so tiny at the time? Today she weighs 246g and last time we measured her shed it was 38", but that was 2 sheds ago. She's currently in a terrarium that's a bit too small, but we spied a larger one earlier at Pet--- that we are going to pick up later today or tomorrow.

Does anyone have any suggestions? How long is she ok without eating, or before we should take her to a vet?

Thanks so very much for any help!!
