so about two a month ago miss Loki got out of her tank and had a good two week roaming adventure. Well we found her and got her back In her tank and warmed up. We fed her after she had been under heat for a while, she took a few nibbles from her favorite meal (ground bloody beef, hard boiled egg yolk, and two frozen/thawed baby mice with collard greens ripped up and hid in the mush) . She ate the mice and few bites of the rest and that was it. Now two weeks later she will not eat. I even tried a live small mouse, some where between a hopper and a small adult. Which I'm totally against doing with her because she had an attack mentality towards everything for a while. But I figured her eating is more important than all the taming progress she had made. She was a wild caught. If that says anything lol. Not what I wanted in a tegu but I don't believe in giving up animals because they're difficult to deal with at first. So yea she hasn't eaten in two weeks. She's not losing weight or acting different in any way, but she just doesn't have that full healthy look anymore and the loose skin on her legs is starting to come back.
Maybe hibernation is on her mind?
I even went out and spent 40$ on fish and shrimp and organs and crab and various meats and she turns her nose up at all of it. Her environment hasent changed, temps are same, times are same. I just don't get it.
