I have a 6 month old female that isn't eating. Its been over four weeks now. My first question would be how long can she go without eating before its a problem?
I've tried; making it dance, leaving it over night, scenting with chicken broth, giving two pinkies one scented one not, I've put her in a small container over night, tiny pinkies, bigger pinkies, put the pinkie on a towel and let her cruise around, teased her with it, and still no bites.
When the pinkie is in the cage she will go and check it out. Spends a moment inspecting it and then moves on. In the small cage she just slept right next to the pinkie. By the way they are all F/T. I also went and bought a brand new case thinking the ones I had might be bad.
She is very active. Always out and about in the evenings. She has even gotten comfortable enough that when I put my hand in the cage she'll climb up and out on it.
She has pooped a few times since her last feeding. Once after a warm bath. The only thing left I can think of to try is cutting the pinkie in half or attempting to force feed which I really don't want to do.
Any suggestions? When do I actually start needing to worry?
