Exclamation was eating like a champ...

so my new corn was eating like a champ before when i had first gotten her, 1 pinky per week, every 4-5 days, but all of a sudden she just refuses food, she is not skinny to the point that i am fearful of her life, but she is losing weight, i have tried scenting, dangling the food around, marinating in chicken broth, i even cut the pinky in half lengthwise in order to expose the organs and entice her as well as marinating the pinky, she will look at it, taste it, and will slither away like shes not hungry, but its been 3 weeks?! shes only 4-6 months old, in a 10 gallon terrarium with many hides, cold side is about 72-75 hot side is around 78-80, shes still alert and active when i pull her out to inspect her, she did have a bad shed the other week but i bathed her and slowly and gently rubbed the shed off... am i doing something wrong here? please help...
