Hello, I am planning on feeding my Asian Forest Scorpions either baby lizards or baby mice today. I was wondering if anyone has done it before is it healthy? ect.

Kill them first, source them from parasite free stock, and only feed them occasionally-if at all.

I just wanted to do something different Brandon, I normally feed them roaches but a little less than 2 weeks ago I stopped feeding them so they'd get an appetite for a baby mouse. I will not feed them mice often at all. maybe once every few months.

Just be careful with something like a mouse. I have never actually done it but I have seen it done. It is not a pretty site and the cleanup will be a lot more intensive. And I agree with the comment above as parasites could cause other issues.

Yeah I decided not to feed them the mice and I gave them to a buddy of mine with snakes. they'll stick with adult dubia and superworms for now
