Hi
My veiled is not eating and hasn't been for several days. She's also been acting very strange, like today she was hanging from her vine by her tail with dark spots/stripes with her eyes closed. I was afraid she had died so I opened up her cage and gently touched her foot, it took her awhile to come to and then she started crawling around again. I'm really afraid that's she's sick, and I'm not sure what to do about it. She just seems super small, and I can see her ribs if she's breathing heavy, so I'm just really concerned and slightly freaking out.
Used to be very active, now she's just very slow and has a hard time catching her crickets. I've attached the Cham info, and I'll attach pictures of her as well.
Thank you so much for all the help. I really want what's best for my veiled.

* Supplements - calcium with d3 every week.
* Watering - she has a dripper in her cage and gets misted once a day.
