Pics of my P.raudus drinking.....

[ZX14]

Here are just couple of cool pics of my Parabuthus raudus (bicolor) having themselves a drink. Also, I just rehoused one and got a pectine shot, 45-46 teeth? Any sex ideas??

Nice pic. I've occasionally caught my scorps drinking.
@gromgrom is the best person to answer your sexing question with just a pectine count. A good, in focus, close up photo of the ventral side is needed.

Definitely male

But you can't just go off pectinal tooth count alone due to the overlap in counts
Males 38-50
Females 34-45

The males lack the
Proximal Medial Lamellae
that are present on females

Pic are of P. villosus but can also be used for MOST Parabuthus species. But can be used to determine sex in P. raudus

Pic taken from Mark Stockman's website
