Hi all,
Well I've just been and checked on my 2nd instar Hottentotta polystictus and they have molted to 3rd instar. I was getting worried because it has been a year since they last molted!!!
Also I have a Mesobuthus tamulus which is up against a damp end of the enclosure drinking droplets of water. On further inspection of he/she I found that her telson/stinger was at a straight angle and wasn't tucked under the cauda?? Also she has been off her food for a couple of weeks too.
Is this a sign of an imminent molt??
Thanks
Scott
