Is this a sign she will birth soon? She's a Wildcaught Emperor Scorpion that I got in September. I've tried introducing her to a male in December, only for her to be highly aggressive towards him. She's full grown, and recently she REALLY ballooned up. I've read that scorpions will birth about a week after refusing feed, however she ate 2 crickets about 3 days ago.
I've been keeping her humidity up, and have a bag taped to the side of her enclosure so she's not exposed to any light. I just saw her on her tippy toes this morning and I know that's the birthing position. I've heard scorpions doing this a few times prior to giving birth as a sort of 'warm up'?
How much longer do you think it would be, now? A month maybe?
This is the only pic I have of her right now. This shows how she ballooned up.
