Scorpion showing signs of birthing?

[HerpetologyDude]

Hey everyone,

I've recently purchased an adult female Emperor scorpion. I've only had her for about 4 days now and she seemed to settle in nicely. Today however I've noticed a lot of restless action, and a constant motion of her Genital Operculum, she paces back in forth then rests by leaning up against her cages walls whcih allows me to see the Operculums movement. She is very thick and almost appears stretched out, I'm now 90% sure she is gravid and might be showing signs that she is ready to birth.

Anyone think that may be the case here? Any other signs I should be looking for?'


Thanks!
