congrats! scorps are fun to keep. welcome to the hobby.

If you like watching scorpions eat as I do, get a few more so when one's not hungry chances are another one is. :D

no, not tip to tip. it's measurement w/o the tail (just torso). well, I've heard stories from both sides of the spectrum, and thank you all for sharing. after some thought i've decided that i'm going to give it a try, and make sure they're well fed all the time and see what happens. i hope...

Well, I received my shipment today. They're not adults and they're of different sizes. i ordered five but only four arrived alive, two relatively the same size, the other two incrementally smaller, ranging from 1.25" to .75". I really hope they get along well, or else I'd have to separate...

nice! i got a big hide with a smaller one on the side if they so choose. can't wait till they get here. thx for the info.

Oh cool. Then I can provide big and small hides around and have them choose for themselves. Thx

nice video. thx

do they enjoy sharing a hide? or should i provide a hide for every individual?

got my pede. a chinese red head, and it's eating a cricket as i type. thanks everyone for the suggestions. it's a very cool pede. :D

come to think of it, it would be exciting to turn up rocks not knowing what i'll find. And, the potentially painful bite from a pede will add some adrenaline into the mix. i'd like to experience it one day. the metallic pede i saw looked a lot like this one...

you'd probably love it in Indonesia. i remember during the rainy season it used to flood and after the water receded centipedes were everywhere; some dead some alive and kicking. they weren't giant centipedes but big enough to intimidate pedestrians. it used to scare hell out of me. i was a...

yeah I was asking about pedes. there are three at a local pet store of the same species, but they burrow. bluefrog, i tried looking up the pede you mentioned, but i couldn't find much info about them when i googled. you have some pics? caco, thx for the suggestion, but i think i'll stick...

Which species is the most fun to care for? I love watching predators feed.

Is it a good idea to throw a cricket down into the burrow? She's 1" and has closed up her burrow for three weeks now.

I just picked up an OBT last week; she's approximately 1.5" - 2". I'm keeping her in a small kk with a cork bark leaning on one of the corners, and she has made herself a nice burrow under it. I think she's in pre-molt, but then again I might be wrong. So, I'll just describe her behavior and...

Thanks for the info Spike. I did a search for "plastic cereal containers" and found the post. It has lots of pictures, and it's a very good idea. I will definitely try that setup when she out grows her current enclosure.

Yep. My I feed my dubias and cricks oatmeals, and they love it. They'll instantly grab a piece and start munching.

I got her!! :D Took me awhile to decide if I wanted a pet hole, but I found a solution. And, it's to get 2 Ts. {D I went to the store and picked up the KB and an OBT. They're both sitting on my desk as I type. I purchased the sling king in her acrylic enclosure, so she already has a...

holy cow. that wasp was aggressive.

Such a beautiful species, but too bad I wont get to see her very often. Thanks everyone. Now all I have to do is answer the question "Do I want a pet hole?".
