Hi! I recently adopted a young Tailess Whip Scorpion at an expo, was labeled as a P. Mexicanus. I was told it’s about 2 molts in.
I transferred it into a bigger enclosure with new clean substrate and furnishings. (Container it came in was very water logged with small flies).
Our first feeding went well! 🦗
However, I was wondering if anyone has any idea what these small spots n bumps are? I haven’t been able to find anything similar searching online. Thank you! 🙏

You my friend have one very messed up whipspider.

1. It's likely P Whitei. It is more than 2 molts in - it is an adult.

2. It had a very rough molt recently. Its limbs are not supposed to look like that. However, if you can help it survive until the next molt it will heal.

3. The lumps are either mites or...eggs?

@wizentrop @Sarkhan42 might be able to confirm whatever is on the carapace
