i think i've read that being unstable on their feet (especially their hind feet) can be a symptom of calcium deficiency.

do you know whether the previous owners fed her a good diet with calcium supplements, and if she was provided with either natural sunlight or full-spectrum uva/uvb lighting? are you providing her with these? torts use the uv rays as part of how they process calcium.

if you have a good reptile vet in your area, he or she might have more ideas for what the problem might be, or maybe someone else here with more tort keeping experience might have some more ideas.
