Cricket Sizes

I would like a quick answer on this, pretty simple question, what size crickets should I feed my scorpion? 1/4 inch - 1 inch

This depends on where you get them but I always get the size "small" crickets at Petco for smaller scorpions and graduate them up to the "medium" size when they get larger. I only feed the "large" size to my adults of larger species (ie adult Pandinus, Hadrurus, etc.)

Even at 2i the three of my P. imperators that live together were eating the small crickets. I never bothered with flightless fruit flies or any of that.
