Stiff Rear Leg - P. Imperator

[Bgrimm]

So about a month ago I got my first P. imperator. She is a juvenile. I'm noticing her very back left leg won't work like the others. It wiggles around a little when she's cruising around but mostly stays stiff. She's been eating a cricket twice a week and drinks from her water dish.

As I'm typing this she's climbing around from the substrate up into the fake plant suction cupped near the top. She took a fall and quickly ran to her burrow. Maybe that was a cause? I just lowered the plant after seeing that.

It could be. Most likely it will regrow normally when she molts, unless she has a bad molt or there is another underlying condition. Do you have any photos?

I do not. Next time she is out I'll try to get a few. I don't even if she is a "she" lol.

@willoux @Bgrimm Scorpions don't regenerate the way spiders do. If the leg becomes limp it will drop it but it will be fine.
