My Arizona Blond hasn’t eaten in a bit and I tried offering her food. She just didn’t want it. It’s getting colder and I’ve noticed her abdomen has shrunken significantly but it’s not wrinkled or shriveled. It’s very oblong shaped. I couldn’t get a clear photo but I’m very worried and I’m scared that it might be too late. I don’t think she’s been death cursing but help??

Hard to say on this picture.
Usualy when they don't eat there is a reason .....
Molt, to cold .. but if they get small it might be an adult male?
How do you feed? Throw it in the hole or are you trying to come out to feed?
You can try a pre killed item on top off it's burrow.
