I am not sure if this will help but I used to have a gecko (he passed away) that was born "without any survival skills" according to the vet. I was told to force feed (with a syringe without a needle) boost or ensure and give him jumpstart (i think that is what it is called). Problems with this: you have to be REALLY carefull when forcing them to take in a fluid because it can get into their lungs and they drown (so this is a last ditch effort, as it was for me) but it does have a lot of calories and does not hurt the gecko, so maybe if you put some on her lips and have her lick it off, this will take time but may work. Second the jump start worked well, once again i hated shoving it in his mouth so i just put it on his lips and had him lick it off, both have a lot of calories and can be a good addition to crickets. unfortunately my gecko was really far gone when i got him (my first one and i didnt realize how sick he was, just thought he was small) and i lost him but these were the suggestions of the vet... Best of luck!!!!
