Olive Keeled Flat Rock Scorpion (Hadogenes paucidens) and Humidity

Yeah I still have them, I think I sold 2 babies a long time ago, maybe 3, don't remember. Have the rest though, here are a couple. The trogs were born after the paucidens but they are generally growing faster, still slow of course. I even still have the adult female in the pic above.

Awesome!! Man, those are great! One of my favorites! I can't wait till my females give birth and I can start to raise them as you have done. Thanks for all the helpful information in this thread.

I hear babies can be tricky to raise up long term ...

I keep mine fairly dry and warm. I give mine a capful of water that I keep mostly full. They drink when they want it.

That's what I do with my 2.5 paucidens.

In what way?

ime raising babies is easy when the conditions are correct. At first I thought it might be harder. The only reason I lost a few was because I let the cap of water be dry for too long ...they shriveled up. A deli with a top, dry coarse sand, maybe a small flat rock and a cap of water and they should do just fine. Offer a cricket or something like it once every two weeks or so, should be good to go.

is this a picture with a Hadogenes troglodytes on the bottom and the Hadogenes paucidens on top?

Is there a noticeable different in the size of an adult male Hadogenes paucidens and an adult male Hadogenes troglodytes or do Hadogenes troglodytes tend to be just a little bigger than Hadogenes paucidens? Thanks!
