@CHARLIEG187 She might be gravid. Also, Emperor and Red Claw are two different type of scorpion, pandinus cavimanus and pandinus imperator. Make sure that you're getting the right care information, because confusing them can lead to an unhealthy/dead scorpion.
it means she's just overweight nothing really bad but you can just get her weight down a little and it'll get rid of it my old emperor got real fat i just dropped her one cricket lower and she slimmed down nice and good
scorpions cannot regurgitate, but will binge eat. it is fat. a gravid female has an even swell. tht looks like the fuckers been eating krispy kream donuts
yup its most likely pregnant my red claw looks just like that congrats on ze babies. gestation lasts 7-14 months believe it or not, some people say 9 but mine stayed gravid for 12 months so be prepared to wait.
@636Jarin hi i just got a african red claw it so pissed of i just got it buy the stiger and pick it up and put on my head but i have read up on this they are going to be pissed of if were they kept is nosy how old is yours
Emperors and red claws are two different animals. This is exactly why common names are so useless. Emperor scorpion= Pandinus imperator, Red claw = Pandinus cavimanus. However, there's no such thing as an emperor red clawed scorpion (as you call it).
Also, you didn't know what the 'spreading out' of the exoskeleton is? But in another (older) video you claim that you've had a couple scorpions already yet somehow they always die... Some research might help'm stay alive :) No offence
okkae nice scorpion man just wanna let you know you got big nuts to handle that thing and that tarantula too i love snakes and iguanas personnally lol i would be to much of a bitch to handle a tarantula or scorpion lol
I just bought an emperor scorpion a few days ago, I think i'm obsessed with them now, but I'm been doing alot of reading up on them, and even though it does look like it's molting the under belly is pretty round also, i'd say if it was in contact or in the same cage as a male, I would watch it, you might have some babies, it would explain the agressivness too.
@ChevyMan4625 this is possible, if they overeat they can actually become overweight, a scorpion can literally get too fat and it will stop eating for quite a while. scorpions can go several months without eating when theyre healthy, when theyre overfed, expect that period to be even longer.
I have six forest scorpions and when they did that means they gonna molt what u are seeing is the old exoskelton spreading out and the white is the new 1 forms
Ditto to what everyone else is saying...she looks prego to me! Give her plenty of rest, fluids and for God's sake, cater to her cravings! (Kidding on the last bit.) Good luck, Dad-to-be!
Or, she could just be getting fat. A fat scorpion will look similar to a pregnant one. If she does give birth, make sure you have a constant supply of food for her to lessen the chance that she will eat her young.
I'm a veterinary science student and I was looking up some information about scorpions when I found your video. I can't see in the video too well, but does it look like white masses between the membranes? You might not see that though because the emperor has a thick membrane, but if she starts burrowing more and seems restless she may be pregnant. The gestation period is between 7 and 9 months so some owners buy them not realizing they could be pregnant.
WHITE MASSES EXACTLY n thnx for taking time out of your day to help me out i guess ill find out in 6 more months if she is pregnant or jus fat lol thnx for the info
@CHARLIEG187 My red claw looks the same. Was she ready to molt or was she pregnant??? this is my first scorp so am unsure what to expect before a molt.
they've been known to fast for months if you overfeed, are you feeding here 3 timesa week or more? but yeah most people are probably right about the pregnancy thing
I have a regular emperor scorpion that is getting thicker at the belly like that. I hope she is pregnant cause I really didn't feed her that often. She has been taking food readily which made me think she was trying to feed her young inside her. I really don't know. Your's lives alone, so she might have gotten pregnant from a male if you bought her from a cage with other scorpions. Mine has a male with her so I bet he knocked her up. Yours is fatter than mine so it could be either reason.
ya bro ur scorpions pregant just know that u gotta wait like 9 months 4 da babies to come out, i kno 4 sho cuz i had 1 too n it looked exactly like dat but it wasnt eating n it died, so i was curious to see if there wer any babies inside so i went ahead n disected it, n waddya kno......like 10 baby embryos
my was like that for a while but i think its cuz she is hybernating.cuz now the fatness went down and she sits in the same burrow all day.and she doesnt eat.and when i try to feed her she wont eat.and i think thats y.but idk y urs is.try putting her under a black light and see if u see little spots moving around in the white parts.if not then shes not pregnant.
