Hi all.

One of my desert hairy's has an odd bulge. Not sure what it means... Should I stop feeding for awhile ?


And heres a shot of a Female Flat Rock Scorpion I purchased awhile back.
It was stuck up against the glass so I was able to get a few good pictures of it.
Gravid ? Fat? Molt ? Im not sure.

Is there anything I can do about the Impaction ?
Should I try and offer some water, or cut back on feeding ?
Is it a death sentence ?

Is there a way to tell the difference between Premolt and Gravid... was hoping the close up would provide that detail.
