I got myself a very, very large gravid emperor today at the reptile show....I thought I'd post a pic. She looks like she's about to burst.

Awesome, I like emps but dont have one right now. I used to have one about 6 or 7 years ago but it has passed on now. Good luck with the babies! I hope to do a little breading project with my a. australis once i get it sexed. Enjoy the new buddy!

Good choice. Your emp appears to be quite a healthy girl. Where was the reptile show? I wish I could've made it there. I would have blown more money. *lol* :D

Hey, cool, I didn't know anybody else on this forum was from jawja (my incorrect spelling, also spelled by many normal people, Georgia). =D

adios,
edw.

What's the white part between the black "plates" on the exoskeleton? Is that caused by the expanding from the babies inside? If so, she's gonna be squeezing out quite a few puppies. =D

Hey, if you need homes for any of the babies, I'm in the next state over.

Yes you're right, she may be gravid or just fat, but we can easily see the small scorps in her so she's gravid :)

The show was in Birmingham....she is supposed to be gravid. I can't wait to hear the scratch scratch of little scorp feet...

Birmingham. Well that totally sucks, I could've made a six hour drive there and back. :( Now I'm sitting at home, bored with nineteen scorps on the way within a couple days. Oh well, "It can't rain all the time".


adios,
edw.

:D

I did go a bit overboard....I had to replace the critters that died on me :rolleyes: :) It doesn't help to have so many wonderful vendors in one place once a month. I got this girl from Kelly Swift. Here's a pic of her side:

I easily see blacker spots, maybe your monitor is too dark?
