I trier to take it out and put her in it but she crawls right out. I'm not shure how old she is but she's inbetween 7 and 8 inches long can some one please give me some input to what I should do thanks.
 
make sure of the temperature on the screen right under the heat, make sure the light isnt sitting directly ontop to avoid burns. :)

I have an adult male veiled that is a screen nut. He's always running around on the front and sides and will try to crawl out on me if I open the cage and just stand there.

But take Chambabysitter's advice and assess your setup and relative cham health to make sure there isn't something that is making her unhappy.
