what age and sex is it? alot of adults(and sub adults) do go off their food at this time of year cause of the breeding season

hi there, how long has yours been off her food? my baby has,nt eaten for 4 and a half wks now! she or he ( i've a feeling its a girl ) is still really active and also keeps sticking her tail and head up in the air, is that a symptom of looking for a man du think?
