L. quinquestriatus are some of the cheaper Leiurus species, that being said @Dr SkyTower is correct, it's difficult to tell at juvenile stages. My guess would be LQ based only on the cost, hebraeus are usually a little more pricey by comparison.
Not really sure it's any indication of intelligence or enjoying human interaction, but my Brazilian rainbow boa comes to the glass when I enter the room and will almost follow me. If I go from one side to the other of her enclosure.
Also my Mojave ball python comes out to the glass as well. The...
It's almost easier to list what I do have. So, just about any Androctonus, Parabuthus, or Leiurus I don't already have. Namely P. capensis and A. crassicauda.
I only have transvaalicus currently, but I'm in contact with people who have crassicauda. Crassicauda are EXTREMELY hostile towards any intrusion. They will posture and tail flick at slight disturbances. Transvaalicus have absolutely voracious appetites. Mine regularly will take down food almost...
I have a Buthus draa (definitely want more) and mine is a MONSTER when it comes to food. He/she has only refused food once since I got it. Great species for sure!
Mine definitely is, though "she" did take food last week. I meant Morphine though, his chubby butt is still refusing to molt.
I'm just guessing both are pre-molt based on the fact that neither are up to the typical sizes of adults.
Definitely get one. Almost sacrilege here on AB but I prefer scorpions over tarantulas. Just be sure of what you're looking at is really a Pandinus imperator (Emperor) and not some Heterometrus (Asian Forest) more than a few stores have no clue about what they are selling. In fact, I recommend...
Well if @darkness975 's H arizonensis and mine both molt properly I will be checking to see if they are M/F as I suspect. If so I plan to give breeding a shot. If successful I will most definitely be posting pictures.
I'd say female. I got what turned out to be a male a month before you started this. He is noticably male too, the punk spreads out on the front glass regularly :hilarious: So comparing the two I'd say you have a little girl.
As usual I am late to the party but still wanted to say Welcome to AB! Also, I am immensely impressed, and a little jealous, at your collection! You have an amazing variety of species!
I'm "old" but I still say "Word" almost daily :hilarious:
Also, congrats on the babies @Jose Rivera I'm hoping to sex the 4 I have and possibly breed them.
