Hi all,

I did not give my guy here any calcium and all of a sudden I see this white powdery stuff on her mouthparts...what could this be? Thank you in advance!

Probably nothing imo, don't see much there. Some are so sure to relate it to parasites as if that's the case every time, nobody knows that. I'd say to consider that there is nobody that knows what is going on there for sure. Could be only a little scorp vomit lol, I wouldn't worry about it.

Could be something natural that happens now and then, I don't think anybody really knows for sure, could be different causes for it.
