Congrats, they are great scorps to own. :clap:

My scorps (parabuthus) are the opposite, they won't touch dubia but readily accept lateralis.

In my case I have 3 tarantulas and 1 centipede to feed. I've already sold off over 2,000 to the LPS.

I had my female P. trans for around 3 years before adding her a mate, although nothing ever happened between them I really enjoy having 2 scorps in the same tank.

Awesome, I've always wanted bicolors.

That's messed up.

Nice pics everyone. You could never get me to hold either of my P. transvaalicus. My female is layed back enough to where I probably could but my male on the other hand is a spaz.

Yeah that would suck.

@cjm So you're saying that I should be keeping my 9"+ pede in a tank that's 14" tall?

I keep mine in a 5.5 gallon Critter Cage.

Too bad you didn't live where I do, I'd give you a few hundred. In the past 5 months I've sold 1700 adults back to the LPS...and I still have lots. :)

Haha I was just going to post that.

Yes, if I remember right each egg case contains like 30-40 babys.

When I kept lateralis they were kept at room temp (high 60's to mid 70's with the only humidity coming from apple's and water gel. It took quite a while for the egg cases to hatch but eventually they did and I had LOTS of them. I went from 24 to who knows how many in just a few months. I got...

I tried breeding mine but had no luck, my female must be too old.

My roaches get fed very well. While they are used as food they are more of a pet as I only have 5 critters to feed them to. They get ground up dry dog food, cheerios, apples, whole wheat bread, mixed veggies and on occasion bananas. When I first started I bought 52 sub to adult and 1 year...

I have a approx. 4 year old female P. murinus that hasn't eaten in months although her abdomen is still plenty large. She also no longer uses her hide and just kind of hangs out in the open. :?

I agree I've had them burrow in my scorpion tank which is 100% sand. I put them in as nymphs and have removed them as sub adults.

I started out with 52 sub-adult to adult and a year later sold 1000 sub-adult to adult's back to my LPS and probably had another couple thousand nymphs. I used a heatlamp for the first 6 months, after that room temp in the low 70's, I also I keep mine bone dry with no substrate.

I used a heat lamp for about 6 months now I just keep them at room temp (low 70's).
