That's totally not how it went down for my guy. I should have watched this last night. His front end broke apart from his back end but I thought he would still be able to get free. I was wrong. I did surgery this morning but now it's just a waiting game. His claws looked pretty deflated but they did start to inflate very slowly. He will lose one half of a back leg. idc about that as long as he has his pincers to eat with.
I recently purchased a Flinders Range scorpion, and as of late she has rejected cricket offerings for weeks now. After thinking she may have died, my scorpion now has an incredibly arched back (like something you'd seen in an exorcism movie) and doesn't move, only when I tap the glass (I know i'm not supposed to) does she respond with little movement, although her positioning does not change.
I ask: Is my scorpion moulting, or is there something seriously wrong?
great vid! i love it....i would love it even more but my asian forest is molting right now and he came out of it backwards, and is all caught up in it =(
