I would give it a few more days. I know my female at about a month older took around a month or so to shed again. But saying that she did not have any problems with eating... Hopefully someone will have a clue as to what is going on with her. What are you feeding to her?
 
Are the crickets small enough for her? They should be no bigger than the space between her eyes. You may want to try other feeders, small silk worms or baby roaches might be an idea. If she's not shedding that might suggest she's not growing so it would be good to get her to eat more.
 
Im feeding her crickets my roaches are to big but the crickets are a little to big for her im getting smaller ones thursday
