Hello chaps and chapettes!
My young pinstripe lilith hasn't fed for over 2 months now which wouldn't normally bother me but she is only about 300g and in the last 2 weeks has lost 10% of her bodyweight.
Vet time or normal weight loss? what you think? |

| 10% is the limit where I would now be considering helping her. What was she feeding on when you got her? |
 
Royals, Corns, Boa, Kings, Hoggy, Ratsnakes

Just gone over my old records for this girl, looks like I might have made a small mistake here.
208g
256g
265g
267g
304g <- Strangely high weight in comparison to the previous weight gain.
277g <- Current Weight
I'm guessing the 304g I've been comparing her weight to was with a rat inside or something, taking it out she's still on a steady weight gain despite not eating for a few months.
Will keep checking her weight and hope it doesn't fall noticeably in the next few weeks. |

| Oh good, that's more hopeful - all the best with her. |
