Hey everyone, I purchased two S. heros specimens a week and a half ago, and the larger specimen has been acting strangely. After eating two crickets in its third day in its enclosure, it has since refused food a few times, which I wasn’t all that concerned about, as I thought it could just be in pre-molt. But when I came home today, it was sitting out in the open with its some of its legs semi-curled up and in an unusual position, and I figured it was about to molt. Fast forward around 6 hours later, it is still in the exact same position it was when I last checked on it. I prodded its terminals lightly with a paint brush, just to see if it was alright, and it was not responsive. The specimen is about 5” so I don’t believe it is dying from old age, and it’s only been in the enclosure for a week, which isn’t super moist btw, so it can’t be mycosis. Any ideas? I’m pretty concerned for my animal Thx
