Its gotten to the point of now overwhelming and THUS I HAVE DECIDED to get myself a tailless whip scorpion! Huzzah! Ive researched the care enough to be fairly confident although its a little hard to find information on specific species other then Damon sp. but Im still fairly excited to see what I end up with! Now all I need to do is find someone who's selling (preferably sling/juvenile) tailless whip scorpions in the uk :happy:! If anyone knows anyone/knows any sites that are selling them I would very much appreciate a pm.
Thanks!

Glad to see another person keeping them. I'll get one as soon as I don't have roommates who hate the idea.

Have you posted an ad in the classifieds?

Uhm... I suggest you to check Virginia Cheeseman's site :kiss:
Already have Haha I have the tab on her tailless whips open but she only has one available right now and I'm not sure how big it is and whether or not I would need to pick up a larger tub for it :mooning:

A great group to keep! I don't really know who to get them from in the UK unfortunately, but whatever species you get you'll enjoy :) Damon medius and diadema are the usual suspects, though I think various Phrynus pop up in the hobby over there from time to time.

Theyre here!
A bit smaller than expected to the enclosure is a tad improvised~ let me know if I should make any adjustments to it ^^

They were marked as Damon sp juveniles so if anyone feels up for trying to ID them it'd be highly appreciated ^^
They're so incredibly adorable oml, ones a little slower than the other but hopefully that's just from being in a box overnight

Glad to see it made it through the molt! Looked like it got a lower start than they normally would, they normally molt a little higher so they don't scrape against the substrate and potentially get hurt.
