What's up with my anzaborrego?

Please go easy on me, I'm a bit of a dummy.

So a while back(during May of last year), I ventured into the Anza-Borrego area and caught a fat looking but rather small anzaborrego hairy. I'm wondering if it was about to molt or something, or if it was gravid because it stayed that way for a while, but its rather petite size made me question such a notion. It's been rejecting food and such for quite a bit, and even though it ate like a couple times, considering that it's been this much time, it's rather odd to think that it was gravid. I'm assuming it's been in premolt for quite some time now... and since I've only laid it on an inch of coco-fibre and given it corkbark to hide under. Nothing has happened with it since. I don't really know exact measurements, or if it's measured by body to head or stinger to claws.

I'll send pictures if one of you guys ask.

Anywho, please give me advice regarding the situation, and feel free to ask me for a picture of it if I haven't provided enough information for you to make suggestions.
