Do scorpion slings or whatever it is called ever get overfed? And whats the pros and cons of it? I hope I got answers . I fed my scorpions slings 1 small roach and 1 meal worm everyday, will it be overfed? Or what?
You can not overfeed scorplings it will stop eating once it prepares for premolt. Scorplings like to fatten up prior to molts.Do scorpion slings or whatever it is called ever get overfed?

Thank you for the reply im now relievedYou can not overfeed scorplings it will stop eating once it prepares for premolt. Scorplings like to fatten up prior to molts.
Oh God thank you for the knowledgeWith scorplings the only downside to fattening them up quickly is that they're more likely to just stop eating and hide underground for longer before they moult. It won't hurt them, you just won't see them for a long time and you'll be freaking out about why your babies have been underground for 2 months straight
What are the things to do for them not to have bad molts?Slings will molt. But adults do not. A lumbering obese adult is not a good thing. They are opportunist since in nature their next meal is never guaranteed. They will gorge if given the opportunity.
What species?What are the things to do for them not to have bad molts?
They need access to water, even the desert species. You may find they'll ignore food when offered to them but they will drink plenty. They've got to be well hydrated before they molt.What are the things to do for them not to have bad molts?
