Just looks fat. Probably pre moult. If it was gravid. You would see the babies inside her

Okay,, thank you!!!

If this is a wild caught specimen I wouldn't completely dismiss gravid though lol. It's pretty thick. Just doesn't quiet seem like it though. I'd have some little deli cups on stand by

yeah,, (she is wild caught),, I'll make sure to pick some up,, It would be easier if she didn't burrow all the time lmao

Keep the substrate loose

If she's burrowing and closes off her burrow leave her be. She will be either due to molt or give birth. Either way leave well alone. If it's neither of these two she will be out and about looking for food.
