My Asian Forest Scorpion

[Josue Gabriel Martinez]

Hello everyone! I’m new to the hobby I just got my first Asian Forest scorpion yesterday. I just wanted to ask for advice on keeping it, how often should I feed it, what should I look out for, etc. I tried feeding it yesterday after I housed it, however, it seemed uninterested. Any advice/help would be greatly appreciated.

First off your scorpion looks well fed due to the plump pleural membrane (soft velvety tissue on its sides) it may simply not be hungry. I would feed it weekly. But it may refuse food for weeks. Your enclosure and substrate looks great though. Keep it at 80-90 F.

Enjoy your new scorpion! These are great big guys with an attitude to match!

Nice enclosure and beautiful scorpion!

Here's some info on basic care, it is for an Emperor scorpion but Asian Forest Scorpions have similar care.
