    Is it dead?

    lol That wasn't intentional! I couldn't bring myself around to burrying her but in the end I had too because she started smelling! Hence the fly smelt her and came to land just as I took the photo!:? I only knew it was there when I saw it on the PC, If I had known I would've caught it...

    Is it dead?

    oooh at least 1.2metres{D It was (from face to end of tail, is that how you measure them?) around 8 inches. She died shortly after giving birth to 1 scorpling who died as well. 2 week later my other female gave birth to 11 and she is just as big!:clap:

    Advice needed! Scorp is moltingbut...

    lol! Wish it would just drop off by itself! Whats this 'Glycerine' stuff then? Where do I get some? Thanks for the help. At the mo I'm just keeping it moist and hoping it'll work it's way off. But this scorp is very lazy and doesn't venture very far so it doesn't brush against anything...

    Advice needed! Scorp is moltingbut...

    One of my scorplings was molting but today I notice the skin on the tail is still on! It managed to get all the body skin off but I guess it is having trouble. This was happening 2 days ago so the skin is quite stiff on the tail. Now I have corn snakes and sometimes when they molt the...

    Mum acting strange after taking babies away

    Ok! Right the reason she is on her own because she's a right nasty piece of work!! Some may have already read about her (Dora). When we bought her she was in a tank with another female and a male. All good sizes. Now we caught Dora grabbing the male by the claws and chomping her way...

    Mum acting strange after taking babies away

    Thanks for the replies! Well I have them all together at the moment. My wife is out getting some little houses for them. I did feed mum well and she fed the babies alright. But one night my wife was watching one of the scorplings crawling over mums back and then she reached up and ate it...

    Mum acting strange after taking babies away

    :( I can understand why.....who wouldn't act strange after having 6 babies taken away. But is she looking for them or just digging a nice hole to have a much needed rest?! My Emp had 11 scorplings 3 weeks ago and finally they have all reached their first instar. Well 6 have, I think the...

    I want to hold my emp...

    When we bought our first emps the lad selling them said they were fine to handle. He picked one up and the scorp pinched the top of the lads finger then the scorp piched the other side of the same finger lol The poor lads finger was going a funny shade. The other guy said gently put him...

    My Emp has had babies but she won't eat

    :( My Emp had babies 6-7 days ago. So reading on this forum I thought I would mist the tank a little and then chuck in a dead Locust (it's all I had at the time) The next day the locust is still there so I squished another but that one is still there! Last night my Emp actually showed...

    Raising Pandinus & Heterometrus babies

    lol no! He got eaten 8 months ago leaving Dora and Fatty. Dora actually ate the male about 2 days after buying them. So we decided to split the 2 females into separate tanks as this was the first time we have had Scorpions, didn't want to lose anymore! Fatty had babies whilst we were on...
