It sounds like calcium defeiceny, How old is she? How she laid any eggs? If I were you I would take her to the vet.
Good Luck

Yes, it definitely sounds like a calcium deficiency. I would recommend taking it to a vet. They can probably give the animal a calcium injection. If for any reason that's not possible you might want to go to your local pet store and check out a product by T-Rex called Moon Drops liquid UVB pure vitamin D3 delivery system. After using this and heavily dusting insects with calcium animals can make a surprisingly quick comeback. I have had great success with this product. If you do try this product it is extremely important that you follow usage directions precisely. Good luck!
