    A cool Opistophthalmus picture

    apparently pinchers and pokies had glabifrons last year, but i think the whole genus is neat along with hadogenes. Haven't seen any hadogenes for sale in anada in the last year either tho, although they do exist in Canada

    A cool Opistophthalmus picture

    Oh yeah, Paul’s page is awesome. I love O. karroensis as well. Wish these species were more commonly available, I only see Opistophthalmus glabifrons offered in Europe usually. From what I’ve heard, they’re not easy to breed though, unfortunately.

    African Burrowing Scorpion Dying?

    Hi, I have an elderly Opistophthalmus glabifrons and she has become super lethargic, doesn't care if I gently touch her, and her tail is mostly out behind her, with all but the very stinger and one or two segments still curled up. Does this sound like she is fading? Can I do anything? I was told...

    Opistophthalmus glabifrons feeding advices

    If it's too much it will eat what it wants and leave the rest. You can't overfeed a scorpion.

    Thinking about some new scorps. any suggestions

    My lass has currently filled in her burrow and is out on the surface. I've gone from not seeing her for months and months to this. Beautiful scorpions but aye, 99.9% of the time you're looking at substrate.
