Love those scorps, look like yellow emps What is the care of these guys, and are they pet holes? Always wanted to try keeping these, there just doesn't seem to be much info on them.
@WeightedAbyss75 when given the space they will burrow and rarely come out. I got this one Saturday and sunday it had already dug into its new enclosure and now its built some decent tunnels. They are easy to care for but definitely pet holes
Got it. Love the look though They seem to be more and more avalible in my local fairs, as to last year where I had never even heard of this genus. Think they are becoming more common, or is that just me?
I have been into this sp for a while and would agree with you on them growing in popularity over the last year or so. I had been having trouble finding them in shops or online but at the expo i got this one at last weekend i saw probably ten specimens. I also love the look of these scorpions Alot.
