Not so good update on H. hottentotta. It layed unfertile eggs with an exception of one scorpling. Sadly, the mom tried to eat her with the eggs. So I had to separate them both. She literally wouldn't even let the scorpling ride her back, instead tried to attack/sting the little one. So I took the scorpling away. Anyone experienced this before with H. hottentotta? this is a first for me.
