Looks like pre molt, they will hide away every so often - especially when full - no point in coming out really.

I got the same vibe, ratio of features makes it not look like it's an adult to me. Metasoma(tail) looks a little thin and claws(chela) seem off a little to me for it to be an adult, could be wrong though.

This looks more of fat than gravid, but I could be wrong. It seems kinda young to be gravid, how big is the scorp on body length and from the front body to the stinger? Also you should moisten the substrate a bit, since they like it kind of humid.

Get the super worm out AT ALL COST or you will end up with a half eaten scorpion when it molts.

Make sure you get the superworm out. They are notorious for eating scorpions and even some lizards alive. dubia should be fine but better to remove it
