Emaciated Boa Head

Folks my 2010 female Nicaraguan Boa has been off food for a few weeks now (around 5/6). I went to offer her a rat again yesterday and saw that her head seems to look quite emaciated but her body looks to have good weight.



Any thoughts?

My king went off feedings for longer than your boa without any visual worrying signs. My instincts are wondering if it has to do more with hydration? Not sure at any rate, best of luck with finding answers and keep us posted!
