Thank you everyone for all of your help. I just want to clear one thing up. For all of her life, the only supplement that she was given was Miner-Al and she had a dish of calcium left in her cage if she needed more. Also, when she was younger, I dusted crickets with calcium. The only reason I started using the other supplements, was with the assistance of the vet to ensure that she was getting extra minerals and vitamins - and trying to stimulate her appitite.

Yesterday I went to the vet for x-ray recheck - and it turns out that she has eggs again. And looking back on the past x-rays, what was written off as fat pads, were indeed eggs. The vet believes we have found the cause for the weight loss - she has been having eggs back-to-back since Feburary. It was not noticed as early, becasue she was with another female, and I was not sure who was having the eggs. With the vet we have decided to cool her down and reduce the light in hopes that this will stop her from wanting to produce more eggs.

Thank you all for your help. It has been greatly appreciated.
