Pretty new to scorpions, but am already facinated to the extreme.

Just got this little critter and it molted the evening I brought it home.

Couple random photos of my other two; A. Australis and H. Arizonensis

I remember when Emperors were ten bucks and sometimes five bucks at shows. That was long ago.

Hadrurus arizonensis is an obligate burrower that requires several inches of a 30/70 clay/sand mixture to construct tunnels in.

Pretty cool scorpions already. Welcome to the hobby! Scorpions are the best thing that's happened to me since discovering video games haha. I really didn't live in the U.S. to see the cheap Emperors (might've seen them when visiting cousins but I don't remember too much). Never got a chance to grab any lol.
