Unpacking ... Pandinus Imperator

Ok heres how to unpack.. i jus recieve my emps today
since they r pretty big and you cant use tongs(?) to
tail them cos their too heavy> so heres one way :)

this is wat you need

1)Tong (? i dono if i call it correctly)
2)a container big enough to cover the scorpion
3) a big container, critter or empty tank.
4) hard piece of cardboard (or think and hard paper)



heres the parcel and don be an idiot like me who got
excited and rip the package open heheh





take the containers that contain the scorp out of the
parcel, remove all tapes that holdong the cover..



place it in the big tub /critters/tank - reason it you
don wan the moss/paper towels to dirty all over yr
enclosure..



open the cover.. with the err.. tongs?

slowly remove the padding for the scorpion... with
tongs? hahhahahah





guide the scorpion out of the box, if its too high,
tilt the box a lil... and place the cardboard /paper
in side and guide the scorpion again to go on top of
it, wan the scorpion to stay there? give it a gently
blow..



now take a smaller container (better to be clear one)
and cover the scorp..



and then put yr hand under the cardboard/hard paper
and move the whole thing into the enclosure for the
scorpion *** be extremely careful not to have any gap
between the covering container andthe cardbox, unless
you wana a scorp on the lose.. gaha



now.. guide the scorp off the cardboard and there it
is in its new home :)




hope it helps.. enjoy..

Guys please update the photos since none is showing and this is quite a usefull thread but is useless without the photos.

George I'm sure the photos are there but I think the links must have been fixed after you changed the web page name.
