    Help Emperors Fighting

    They were sold to me as male and female, but the male looks more like a female. The female looks like she could be gravid and I'm going to make a thread for that soon. I have thought about one of them being an imperator but I don't know the difference.

    Desert Hairys & Feigning Beetles?

    Some people keep desert hairy scorpions with blue death feigning beetles because they seem to have a symbiotic relationship. Should I do this? Will they eat a molting scorp? Thanks in advance.

    Sick Desert Hairy! Help!

    Just a few minutes ago I rehoused my desert hairy scorpion and I noticed that the tips of his legs seemed to be black and decaying. I don't give him any water which most people do. Could this just be old age? I also went to my pet shop that had an Androctonus sp. that had the same problem but...

    20 Gallon Tall Terrarium Ideas

    Hi, I recently bought a 20-gallon tank but I have no idea what to put in it. It's the same size as two 10 gallon tanks stacked. Inverts only though because herps are too expensive. I don't want something terrestrial because of the waste of space. I also already have amblypygids and cockroaches...

    Hi, I'm heading to Southern Florida this week and plan to catch Scolopendra longipes (formerly alternans). Any tips on how to catch them, where they like to hide, when to find them, how big they get, traps etc are very appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Avic. Problem

    Thanks for your help guys. I looked at it with a flashlight and it turns out it's a mature male, so it could just be trying to find a female.

    Catching Florida Bark Scorpion Tips

    Hi, I live in Florida and I've been searching for Florida bark scorpions (Centruroides gracilis) for about a year now. I have caught Centruroides hentzi millions of times under pine bark with a UV light at night but I've never seen S. gracilis. Any tips are appreciated very much.

    Hottentotta Questions

    Question 1: Are they all parthenogenic? Question 2: Do they get all their water from their prey? Question 3: Do they cannibalize as adults? Question 4: How long does it take for them to mature? Thanks

    Avic. Problem

    Maybe I could just reposition the bark because it's pretty bendable.

    Avic. Problem

    It's in a 5-gallon critter keeper with heat treated palm bark as the hide because I ran out of cork bark. I have no heating on the cage and the rooms at room temperature. The substrate seems dry but I misted yesterday. It ran into the hide and curled up when I opened the lid, so that's why it...

    Avic. Problem

    Hi, My Avic is not building a web. About a month ago I rehoused it and it seems to ignore the hide and now it's either clustered in a corner or roaming around. It hasn't ever even taken shelter in its hide. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Alex

    Huntsman spiders

    Does anyone in the US keep any other huntsmans other than Olios giganteus and Heteropoda venatoria? I would love to get a australlian giant but I'm pretty sure they don't exist in the US hobby.
