Hunchback of Notre Mouse!?!?

Hello

Yesterday i just noticed that one of my female mice has a curved or hunch back so to speak. She also seems to be sort of thinner near her hips as well. Her eyes arent as bright and open as the others. However she seems to be eating and drinking normally. Perhaps sleeping a little more though. Can anyone tell me what sort of illness this is?? Is it fatal or transmitable to the others? If so, I will probably use her as a "feeder" rather than a breeder of feeders...
Replies are much appreciated!!
