Swcp hasn't eaten or shed!

Hi all my 3 1/2 year old south west carpet hasn't eaten in 6 weeks or shed in 3 months. it last took a large adult rat. i have temps set at 28-33 and 10 hours of daylight. changing 2 large water bowls once a week also handeling once a week. Should i be worried?

Im not 100% certain, but if she is in good health i wouldnt be too worried. 6wks without eating isnt something to be concerned about, & as for not shedding......i think that would be because she isnt eating, hence isnt growing. Someone can correct me if im wrong, but as i said if she is healthy then i wouldnt worry yet.

it's winter, mine havent eaten in ages. 6 weeks isn't too much to worry about. wait another month for it to heat up and see how it goes.

Is it a male? If so, it's perfectly natural for males to refuse food for 3-6 months of the year, from about May through to October or November.
