Hi, all
So, I visited a pet store-I gave up my pursuit of the Vietnamese Giant Centipede and tried Scorpions instead. I saw two terrariums right next to each other-one held a few Baby Vinegaroons (approx.1-2 inches in length), and the other held a solitary Desert Hairy Scorpion (juvenile-adult, approx.4 inches in length). I am conflicted in opinions, so I need help. Oh yeah, and I have a terrarium (2'x10"x1') already set up from forever ago (probably needs a substrate change). It is a jungle-type terrarium. The Desert Hairy Scorpion was $59.99, and the Baby Vinegaroon was $49.99. I'd like your opinions on:
(and yes, before you tell me, I know, if I pick the Desert Hairy, I need to change the substrate)
