I just don't want her to stay in and eat all the babies. I'd like to try to keep some alive as long as possible. Edit: no, I'm not 100% sure. She was recently wild caught and the size I expected. Over time she got bigger and matched pictures of gravid Hairys.

4 weeks ago she had 4 or 5 crickets, and about the same every week prior

My desert hairy was gravid and buried herself out of view. It's been about 3.5 weeks, how long should I give her to come out on her own?

It is WC, I got it from pinchers and pokies about 2 months ago, so we'll see. Any prep I can do now in case I do get babies?

I've been feeding him/her 3-4 crickets every two weeks, each feeding spread over a few days. I just want to make sure I'm not over feeding, or ready as possible for babies. Thanks in advance!

I'm taking a day-cation to the four corners monument this weekend. Has anyone had any luck collecting in that area?

Any one looking for a tiger salamander? One had its home destroyed near where I live and is in need of a home. I'll give him away for free, or sell the whole tank I have him in. Colorado Springs area

I've seen a few tanks with false bottoms over a water source to regulate humidity. Ive considered putting a water dish on the bottom of the tank with a straw thru the substrate to add water.

Any tips or good locations for finding wild death feigning beetles in the Colorado Springs area? I know I can find them online, but I really don't want to pay the shipping.

Posted in the wrong thread, deleted my Irrelevant info.

So if my hadrurus only dug a 5 inch burrow in a 20 gal with 4 inch substrate, would you say it's too hard (30/70 clay/sand)?

A lot are, like my hadurus pallidus, the rest are tropical. If you wanted a good starter desert scorp, I would recommend the desert hairy like mine

Thanks, it's a 20 gallon tank, the substrate ranges from 4-6 inches. I did put some upside down bread pans in the center to take up some space and to encourage his tunnels to be closer to he glass. He has dug in 3 or more inches under the rock in the picture. I used wet clay to help hold the...

I noticed you are using a zoomed thermometer/humidity gauge, have you ever had any issues with it? I recent bought two, and the Temps read the same, but the humidity is different by 8-10 degrees. Is it just a cheap brand?

Hadrurus pallidus from pinchers and pokies, pics are from the day he arrived. He's been pretty active so far, exploring and digging.

He may have been extra hungry from being shipped, Idk when his last feeding was. I will definitely cut back, thanks for the advice!

I gust got my first scorpion, a desert hairy. The first night I feed him, he ate 5 medium crickets. the next day fed him 2 I left 4 more overnight and they dissapeared. So over 2 days he's had 10-12 crickets, is he just hungry? Will he ever over eat, or should I just feed him till he stops? Thanks!

Lovely scorp, but this will be my first, I don't have any other critters to trade. Thanks tho!
