| Welcome to the forum!! She just looks normal to me, shes about as big as our our female emp, she seems to get mega fat off one locust lol, but saying that he may well be gravid it would be hard to say this early but if he is she will get huge lol got any setup pics?? We all live pics on here | |

| Welcome aboard fella, nice big emp. +1 on what Bex said just looks normal to me. - 231bex wrote:

That would be a turn up for the books! Sexing is probably the next step. Yep set-up and pectine pics needed lol unless you're already sure on sex of-coarse. | |

| My local reptile shop thinks its a female the girl at the pet shop i bought it from didn't know anything about it except it was getting big quick. I read about sexing by the claw size long skinny for male short fat for female i really cant tell. I got it in a 10gal with bed a beast mostly verm my H. lividum enclosure needed the coco more due to green mold and still needs more. It really likes the cave i like the fact i can see it from the side. Is there a special diet for fat scorpions It ate 2 crickets i gave to it with tongs yesterday I have another running around. Thanks for the help | |

| I would say female, but I can't be 100% Never seen someone use a cave on it's side before lol can't it be knocked over?? You really need 4-6inches of coco fibre so she can burrow and you can keep humidity up as it should be around 70% and feeding once very 3 days or so one cricket should be enough, ours prefers locusts | |

| Hmm, I'd guess male just by looking at the operculum It looks more oval than heart shaped. It would go either way though. It looks like the pectines are one piece rather than split which would counter my guess at male so that's a tough one. I'm also not the best for sexing either I got +1 on everything else Bex says though | |
