A few things to check out this leo. What substrate you using? What lighting? What you feeding? What size cage? Are there any shelters?

Yes, please provide a detailed description of your set up.
In the mean time, if you can get a fecal sample, bring it to the vet, sounds like parasites, and with parasites, early intervention is the key~
