Take her and a fecal to the vet. She may have parasites. Is she kept on any type of sand, bark, wood chips, anything like that? Very important. She needs to see a vet, especially have a fecal done as this is the only way they can really diagnosis parasites. If it is parasites, they can be treated with medication. Another thing I am worried about is if she has injested sand or some other matter. This may cause her to become sick also, and this can only be treated by a vet. Let us know how it goes. Krista
