Alabama? Need Group!

[Arachnomore]

Just curious to see if there are any groups or individuals looking for a group in Northern Alabama to get out there and collect some Species! I just moved here so I don't even know if there is a variety or not. Let me know! I know we have 2 or 3 types of Scorpions, Ton's of snakes and I am not sure what kind of spiders. I guess Bigfoot (Alabama White Thing - google it :razz lives in my neck of the woods.

Well let me know! Add me to AIM or reply here!

I wish I could get down there. But if you get any Vaejovis carolinianus, please let me know.

i live in ala. and theres nothing here.

actaull Alabama do have scorpions there, in the Northerns parts you have V. carolinianus like Lokal had mentioned, and in the Southeast parts have C. hentzi
Now there is another specie of scorpions but I cannot remember what it is other than another V. spiece

 

[redknee_freak]

well if anyone from Northern Ga or Alabama can get any V. coralinianus , do let me know as well

 

[Arachnomore]

When would be a good time to go out T hunting... What would you guys be willing to give if I get some scorps?

Vaejovis carolinianus

 

[redknee_freak]

i know the weather is very similar to where i am( i am only an hour away from the Alabama line, close to Bainbridge, Ga.) I would say prolly arounf late March would be a good time to get them V. carolinianus

What would I give, well i could trade you a few C. excilicauda for them or I will buy them from you

thanks

What is the demand for this species? Are they hard to get? Rare? How Venomous?

 

[redknee_freak]

they aren't rare, just hard to fine people who has them or can get them
and they aren't very venomous, they are a level 1 like the C. hentzi are

even though, they are hard to get, they still aren't a high dollar scorpion

 

[Arachnomore]

I know absolutely nothing about Scorps... I was just curious as to why ppl wanted them. I will keep an eye out.

It's all good, we all started knowing either nothing or lilbit of inverts.
Taking knowing more of scorpions(or whatever is your intersts) by askings questions. Remember this, there isn't a such things asking a stupid question, a stupid question is one that was never asked.


BTW, when it is time for you to go and look for them, let me know. I will explain how to look for them. These scorpions are lilbit more easier to find compared to the C. hentzi

Ok! I got my Jacket, a winter hat, and a can of defrost! Where to now?

 

[brandontmyers]

Yeah they aren't really rare. Infact when I had them I had a hard time selling babies for $4. I would love to study them more in depth which would be a good reason for getting some from AL. I am trying to get some from a few regions to compare, sizes, time to maturity, etc. I would be willing to trade a few babies T. stigmurus when my female has them.
