How old is your White's? I'm assuming young because you said you feed her fifteen crickets...was that per night or per week?

It could be that she is close to shedding but if it has gone on a few days I doubt that's the reason, it doesn't take White's that long to make a complete shed and they should be doing it every two or three days.

I know what you mean about freaking out when you see them shed for the first time. I was so scared the first time I watched my White's do it I thought he was choking and pulled the skin out of his mouth in the middle. >< Later I realized it was just shedding and I had denied him of essential vitamins, so I felt bad, but now that I'm educated everything's ok.
