A death:(

i woke up the other morning and my flat rock was out, it was strange because he never used to come out unless there was food( but i never saw him eat once) his movement was really slow and sluggish:( so i raised the tempereture and put more water in than usual and when i came back about 4 hours later he had died:( any suggestions to how he died
thanks

added water? flat rocks dont like humidity, or do you mean to the water dish - they are rarely seen anyway - what temp did you push it up to - its usually females that stay hidden whereas males will sonmetimes appear in search of a mate

yeah put more in his dish i put it up to 85-90?? where did i go wrong??

it could have just been down to old age - was he captive or wild

i have no idea how old he was:( i even travelled to birmingham to pick him up:( as there was none i could find in wales:( but ihavnt no idea if he was captive or wild cought but thanks with the help:D

My guess would be old age.

I second that! They are amoung the SLOOOOWEEST growing scorpions. I would wager a bet that he was already a few years old when you purchased him.
