I got a friend to ship her as fast as possible but it still took 4 days for her to get here, when she got here everything in the tank was broken, the fibers were really cold and she was buried in her coconut fiber. She didn't move for the 1st 20 minutes. Then her legs started to twitch. She finally crawled a little on me after 35 minutes so I put her back in the tank with a tank warming plate. She's stayed in the same spot. She's only the size of a quarter. Every once in a while she moves her legs but not much else. Her legs are stretched straight out, not tucked under her and when I touch her she doesn't run but moves her legs a little. Is she dying?</p></blockquote><p></p>
