That Uroplectes planimanus is stunning! Is it gravid or just fat?

my emperors (ooooh how rare )

their favorite spot, dont really know why, its the only part of the tank the sun hits ( you can see the plants grown in the skulls direction), i assume because it gets warmed up here so its a nice perch at night.

rather large grasshopper getting drug into the burrow. he deserves it too, his bites hurt worse then emp pinches!

their favorite food, they go nuts over these lizards when they get one, its one lizard a week or 4-6 bugs (consisting of crickets/superworms or whatever i catch).

sorry for the quality of some of the pictures, bad camera, its a finepixa210.

If they're spending alot of their time in the "sun spot" it makes me think they want it a bit warmer. Have you thought about taping a heatmat to the side of the tank so they've got a warm spot. Just a thought.

Wow never seen an emp eating a lizard before!! Awesome pic! And michael your photos are incredibly good.. how do you get them to look so clear!?

 

[RottweilExpress]

I felt that I had to post my Emp female too =) She's big and lazy, about 7" perhaps. Here she's sitting in my lap.

[r8frazer]

George , your Swammis look sort of dusty and the sub looks a little dry.. is it just dry on top and theyv got a little dried dirt on them from being out of their hides or do Swammis require less humidity??

 

[G. Carnell]

hey
The dusty one is a Male which i bough in mid april from the BTS show, he was already like that, and despite giving him water, hes never cleaned himself up like the other two, who are in nice shape (both the others are less than 2 years old)

Nikos had the same dusty thing in some of his scorps, and they died soon after, so this guy wont last long.. i made sure i used him though

that female is no where near giving birth, so ive got all 3 (big female and 2 males) at room temperature, and humidity, its sub-standard, but at the moment im incubating my 2 highly gravid females (2 years since mating...) at high temp and humidity

they dont seem to require high humidity, but its best to keep them hot and humid ;p

ill post pics of my gravid swam!

 

[G. Carnell]

More shots, my cams working...!!! YAY
