Adults can be stubborn w/ not eating their salads- I would get her some BSFL and use those as salad lures - if you need websites for those please ask - what is the staple insect your feeding now? It may take her a while to poop its not unusual for them to go weeks w/ out pooping -- just make sure your getting surface basking temps w/ a digital probe thermometer 95-100 and a good UVB NO coils please - her drinking out of the bath is fine - how often are you offering the baths

What size tank? BSFL are black soldier fly larvae -- www.symptonbsf.com- insects should not be bigger than the space between their eyes
