Hey everyone
I just got a big AF P. imperator
from Tim Brown at Wildnmildpets
She's pushing 8 inches and is
quite...robust ( read: FAT )
Her interstitial tissues are distended
all the way around, top, sides, etc.
She's eating dubia and crickets so far. ( 3 weeks)
I've got her in a tank 12"H X 20"L X 10"W
She has about two inches of dead wood chunks
for substrate and a bark half round hide as well.
She has a 3" terracotta dish for water.
I mist the 'strate daily and hopefully I'm maintaining
a decent RH. Even though I keep the house around 78-80F
her tank is against an outside wall and without a heater it
is between 68-72F. I have ZooMed heating pad on the back wall
of her tank on the forward end ( Hide is on the back end)
The wall under the heater is about 106F. The ground directly in front
of it is more like 74F. So, she can get hot when she wants to and
get cool when she wants to. So....how'm I doin'?
Being AF and almost certainly WC I'm kinda thinkin' that there
may be babies on the way. I'm new to scorps and I appreciate
any input ayone may have for me
Thanks!
