    Scorpion Picture Thread

    urodacus planimanus juvenile not pictured: me behind the camera repeatedly remarking "oh no" and laughing at the sheer placidity of this lil thing note: i'm aware it's a small container, it's temp housing for a few days while i get a big one

    Australian Ts

    that's queensland law yeah? not automatically applicable to western australia (you're lucky though, that's pretty relaxed). i know that you need a permit to collect for scientific purposes here, but i can't find anything on govt websites specifically about collecting for personal reasons outside...

    experience with rainbow stag beetles?

    it's happened. rainbow stag beetles have re-appeared on upcoming stock lists. i'm ready. kind-of. i have no experience keeping beetles in all honesty and would be keen to hear other peoples' experiences with keeping Phalacrognathus muelleri. or even just people's top tips for keeping tropical...

    Zoo idea

    on a slightly more serious note, i'm not sure which would be the most popular exhibit. people tend to oggle the deadliest thing they can find, but they are also drawn to exhibits they can directly interact with. it might be a case of people going to see some real brutal species and winding up...

    Australian Ts

    not sure what being italian has to do with it? regardless, probably don't encourage a 16-year old to break the law. especially when we have a number of sellers here ripe 'n' ready to sell captive-bred t's which aren't from decimated wild populations :shame:

    Experience with Sydney Funnel Web?? Atrax. Robustus

    okay, so did a lot more digging around. if you get the right export permits, you can export aus species. steve nunn exported a number of breeding pairs of aus tarantulas back in the day, and that's likely how taipans and monitors are in the u.s (why anyone would want a fierce snake is beyond me...

    Zosis geniculatus colony for feeding Portia, Lampona, etc?

    zosis geniculatus looks to be the ideal feeder species for fringed jumpers according to this supplier here in aus so i'd say you're set. i can see whip spiders maybe going for them, though they might be a bit small for larger huntsman? might take some experimentation, honestly.

    Australian Ts

    oh boy, getting inverts in aus. fun times ahead, my friend. the main deal with t's in western australia (seeing as you're in margs) is this: there are few here, and they're all in perth stores from what i can tell. perhaps call the cannington pet magic store and ask who their breeders and...

    Experience with Sydney Funnel Web?? Atrax. Robustus

    oh you're totally right, as an australian who has had to deal with moving animals around the country, i have absolutely no idea how difficult it must be. you've opened up my eyes to my ignorance, praise be.

    Experience with Sydney Funnel Web?? Atrax. Robustus

    it's unlikely that they've been legally exported outside of australia due to australia's strict laws around the exportation of native wildlife.

    Enclosure/Terrarium Pictures

    enclosure for young mature female Selenotypus sp. Platinum. mostly, it's just a 3litre container from bunnings filled 2/3 of the way with coco-peat and some sphagnum moss. i love the little bridge i got for her hide though, it's a $9 aquarium decoration from city farmers.
