After a quick trip to my not-so-local pet store i came across a few Parabuthus Leiosomas. Pretty stunning appearence. I was wondering if anyone has had some experience w/ them?
So far i've learned they have no venom squirting ability, and they can't or don't burrow. These two were also fat to the point of being gravid. Are these known to be cricket hogs? I didn't get a chance to see their pectines, and i don't know if they're sexually dimorphic.... but the clerk said they've had them for 8 months now and he feeds them 1 cricket every week. All of this time they were solo. so not too far out of gestation time for some scorpions... should i go back and get them?
actually what is the average gestation time for a gravid p. leiosoma?
heh, lots of questions.
eager to hear some help.
