Villosus video I made with a crappy digital camera is here, and yes, I removed all the hiding spots so I could see him better. His enclosure does not always look like this.

Yeah yeah, pick on the green newb! vemonous, then? yeah thats the one..... right?

1.Posion:any substance that causes injury or illness or death of a living organism.
2.Venom:toxin secreted by animals; secreted by certain snakes and poisonous insects
(e.g., spiders and scorpions)

3.venom is a specific type of posion then? no?

 

[Raan_Jodus]

poison works by being ingested (also interacts with blood, or can)
venom only works when it interacts with your blood stream.

You can drink venom, as long as you don't have a mouth sore or an ulcer

 

[Aztek]

Poison**

No because they work in different ways.

 

[Kruggar]

Fine.... scorpions are venomous, won't forget. sheesh!

 

[Raan_Jodus]

relax, its a minor thing that doesnt really matter. Whose gonna drink venom anyway? (I shouldn't say that, cause I'm sure there are some whacko's around here that would/have)

back on topics, I guess my favourites have been my Centruroides, Hadrurus, and I suppose the B. Jacksoni I gave ya. Those would be my tops I guess that I've had.

You asked.

Scorpions are arachnids,not insects.They have 8 legs and 2 pedipalps.The tail is just an extension of the abdomen.I would think that someone with 19 post would know this.

[Aztek]

No one is being mean except that one guy who said he should know already.

We are simply correcting him.
