    'Worm with a mouth' Help please.

    I haven't got a clue, but you say that you found those pictures on google. Was there a title, description, name or anything to go with the picture? A little research may be needed.

    I would say if you like the snake, then keep it. If you don't like the snake, then... SCORPION FOOD!

    your first memory of a scorpion...

    Other Animals?

    Do any of you know of other animals a scorpion can co-habitate with? Are there any animals that are viewed by scorpions as neither predator nor prey, and likewise for the other animal?

    OK, all you scorp lovers....

    I would recomend a Hadrurus. Their venom is extremely mild with a lethal dose being 168mg/kg of body mass. There is some debate as to whether or not they are communal. People have had good experiences and bad. Currently I have 2 living together. They are fairly large at about 4"-4.5". They...

    You can find foreceps, tweezers and hemostats of various types and sizes on ebay. There are also rubber tipped foreceps sold at www.SpiderShoppe.com. Generaly, the price will range between $5-$15. Otherwise, you can get these items from any hospital supply company, but for a considerable mark-up.
