I went to the local pet store tonight to have a look around and found they had bought in a bunch of Grasshoppers, selling them as pets.
Had a quick look, thought they looked quite awesome and would love to see a Scorpion tackle something around the same size as it.
So I payed my money (after receiving a story from the woman serving me, on how to keep grasshoppers alive and what they need to eat etc
) and took it home to feed to my p.imperator.
I dropped in the grasshopper and I witnessed my Scorpions first ever use of it's tail to kill it's prey. She only managed to eat around 1/4 of it, felt a bit guilty as it's gone to waste but it was really worth the money I paid to watch it. Shame I didn't get my video camera out![Frown :( :(](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Anybody else fed theirs live grasshoppers before?
