I dont know if you tried this....but try to give her termites.....it sounds odd but they are their main diet in the wild.... pygmies are therefore attract to white coloerd bugs thinking they are termites.

if she can still walk and shoot her tongue she should go for som termites....only move her to a cage with damp paper towels for feeding...or until she gets better. also give her a bath to help hydrate her
