Should I be worried?

[Samantha895]

i have a M Robustum about 1 1/2". I just did some maintenance in his/her enclosure and noticed she is dragging her hind legs. I know they have a unique "threat posture" but not sure if I should be worried. Any ideas?

Samantha, is it possible for you to post a picture? It would help us understand exactly what you are talking about. The threat posture of M robustum is rather to lift up the abdomen than to drag the hind legs, but maybe we are talking of the same behaviour?

She ( don't know if it is a she for sure yet) doesn't seem to be too distressed. I'm just over protective maybe?

It seems healthy to me. It can move the hind legs, right?

Yes. She must have just been mad at me... as she is standing fine now. I recently lost a baby and I guess I am still a bit nervous.
