I looked at your photos. Right now you only have one hide in her enclosure. She needs two- one on each side. She could probably use a bigger water dish too. Check out this book; it can be really helpful for a beginner. Do you currently have her on a heat mat with a thermostat?
also she only came with a reflector and a 60 watt house bulb i didn't even know what uth was when i got her but she didn't come with one. i asked alot of questions about heating but was brushed off and told she was fine. I need to get one stat but i am super strapped for cash

If you are using a lamp, make sure its not a screen top because it will drain your humidity. A thermostat should be considered a must, but because you are strapped, try and get your hands on a dimmer.
