How do you check if a scorp is gravid? I cought a.. mm well havent been able to class it [see other post of mine] Anyway it was nice sized not fat at all and I gave it a cricket as soon as it was i its perm encloser it gobbled it down quickly and was quiet fat the nexst day.. I thought sure yeah its just fat from that cricket.. only problem is I didnt feed it for a week because I didn't wantt to overfeed well it remaind fat and ate another cricket.. some help would be appreciated

How big was the cricket compared to your scorpion.

Its body size... From where the pincers attach to where the tail ends.. it ate the whole thing thats why I thought it might just be fat but it still hasnt shrunk any... and its been about a week and a half now...

As I see, the crickets were huge and maybe that's why your scorp is big, even though it's been a week since he had fed. Cause scorpions got a low digestive process depending on the temperature. The higher it is, the faster the process go.

But, in a month, if you see no changes and your scorp is hidding all the time and don't seem to be hungry at all, there's good chances that your scorp is pregnant.
