It is possible Bady has a stuck egg if she has been laying a clutch and is now having problems. Seeking veterinary care is best to check if there is a stuck egg and to have it safely removed. You may notice swelling of her abdomen, straining to go "potty" without results, or other protrusions if this is the case. Lack of calcium can lead to egg binding and weakness, so providing a calcium supplement in the future can help. If she is very weak and having trouble breathing, seeking veterinary care ASAP is needed. You can try to move her to a separate hospital cage that is kept warm and with access to food and water, however if she is struggling, the sooner you can get care the better.
