    Considering the fact that the images are small and low quality and that I'm not quite sure what I'm looking at I think a vet visit is in order. You say she's eating and breathing normally and has lived with this infliction for more than a week, so I think she could probably survive long enough for a non-ER vet to see her. I'd take the VERY FIRST appointment they have available though and I'd also try to go to someone who specializes in reptiles, or at least has a working knowledge of them.

    Hope your baby feels better.

    I doubt it's a collapsed lung, but she should be seen by a vet.

    I tried to make an appointment today, but they were very busy. Also they aren't open tomarrow. But they said to bring her by wednesday.

    Okay, this vet said she was just skinny and that I should feed her 3 times a week untill she fills out again. She also had a parasite called coccidia, :) He gave me medicine and she'll be fine.

    Coccidia could explain it I suppose. Glad to hear its been resolved and that she'll be okay. :)
