Hello!
I have a Paruroctonus silvestrii female who I acquired gravid a few months back and she just gave birth a few days ago. Everything i've read about scorpions says to feed the females quickly after they give birth, my problem is that she gave birth under about two inches of substrate, completely blocked off. The only reason I know she had the babies is because she made this cave right up against the side of her enclosure. Does the fact that it's still closed off mean she isn't hungry and that I should just leave her alone?
Thanks in advance! I know much more about Spiders than I do about Scorps.
