One of my leopards, a year old female, not ever been with a male stopped eating about a week ago and has been restless ever since, she keeps walking around the cage and I don't see her sleep or rest ever.

Her condition still seems good and I have checked for eggs in case she is producing some infertile ones, but can't see anything.

The last time she went toilet normally was just after she stopped eating, then her poos went kind of grainy and today she had a poo that had the white bit which looked normal but then a solid but kind of chalky texture GREEN and small and oval shaped... not seen that before.

So she hasn't eaten for a week and is constantly restless. Her set up and temps are fine, she is on shelving with 4 others who are fine, so it must be something else. I am running out of ideas and need some urgent advice.

What type of substrate are you using (sand, papertowels, etc.)?

Papertowels. All my geckos are kept on them and the breeder they were from also kept them on the same.

My first thought was impaction (unusual dropping, chalky as you said). I recently had a problem with a newly acquired female. After letting her settle in for a few days, I fed her some crickets, lightly dusted with vitamin / calcium. The next morning she regurged. I was going to take her to the vet, but I waited a few days then fed her again without the dust. She has been an eating machine ever since, i just have to make sure I load up my feedrs beforehand. So, if she hasn't had any changes in diet either, maybe a trip to your vet is the very best idea right now. Be sure to take along a stool sample as well in case it is something like internal parasites.
