Those L.arabicus are stunners! I’ll add those to my ever-expanding want list! How uncommon are they in the hobby?

Leiurus quinquestriatus are super rare nowadays. Happy that an experienced keeper has some in the works!

Would definitely be interested in some quinquestriatus and arabicus when they are available. Keep up the awesome work!

Well you have some very rare leiurus that i dont have yet and with you being an awesome keeper yourself maybe we can do some trading so we both keep all these rare species around

Sounds like a fantastic idea to me

Man, beautiful arabicus! Definitely a species I need to add to my Leiurus group. I'm only 4 away from having them all.... why does somalicus have to be so hard? Lol

Thanks and yes I love the Arabicus probably the most of all my leiurus so far and hopefully soon I'll have some to share as my 1 female looks like a blimp now lol
Somalicus will be around someday I hope
Which 7 species do you have ? Maybe another trading partner here !

I get the majority of my stuff from Brandon, haha. I have brachycentrus, macroctenus, herberti, hebraeus, haenggii, quinquestriatus, and jordanensis. The jordanensis are very close to mature.

Ahh you have a nice collection there too with 3 species i dont have and i hope Brandon and you both get to breed L. Jordanensis soon so you can share the wealth

Nice collection. I'm looking forward to getting a couple L. haenggii soon. First jump into the Leiurus

L haenggii seem to need higher temps even at smaller instars so just a tip before you dip your toes into the leiurus pool ! They are an awesome genus for sure!

 

[Stenodactylus]

Leiurus haenggii is definitely a good one to start with! Fairly readily available, straightforward to keep. I haven't had many issues at all with any of my Leiurus, to be honest.

Thanks for the info! I have a few Hottentota species and an Androctunus bourdoni already, but definitely will get a warmer spot for the haenggii

No problem my haenggii's seemed a little sluggish and non responsive to feeders
( as if they had a molt coming soon ) but once i raised the heat a little for them , they ate just fine. All my other leiurus were kept a little cooler and had no issues but the haenggii just needed a tad more i guess

holy crap man very impressive collection!
