Hello! I'm writing here because im basically at a loss of what to do right now with my scorpion. I got her last year around Halloween, and she went off food in December 2019. Right before I left for Christmas.
For about a month she went down into a hole and pretty much stayed there, I dug her out to check on her and she was basically a ball and seemed very thirsty (I sprayed her with water and she drank from the spray)
After that she perked up, but still would not eat. Shes not lethargic, shes very active at night and very feisty when bothered, but she still flings food away when offered.
I feel like what might have happened is a mixture of it having gotten unseasonably cold in Cali (my house doesnt have good insulation and it was my first winter here) and the heating pad wasnt enough. As well as I had problems keeping the humidity up. But the temps and humidity are good now and I've tried to get her to feed with no results.
Im wondering, is she maybe having trouble molting? her plates are spread but shes not tried to molt at all. I've attached a pic that is hopefully clear enough.
