Hey everyone, just curious if anyone has experience keeping any species from this genus? becki, boreus, silvestrii?? I can't seem to find much of anything on them except they live in the desert. Care must be similar to S. mesaensis or H. arizonensis?
Also, anyone have any tips on venom level?
Found some from an online dealer, I'm intrigued but don't buy creatures I am wholly unfamiliar with, for their benefit!

Thanks!

I don't know too much about this species so had a look online and found nothing (as expected!) It seems their care is similar to the dune scorpion, the common name is California common scorpion? So I checked out what info I could find on here and I found this link. I assume all the different species of paruroctonus have the same care requirements.

P silvestri and boreus are not necessarily desert species. Species like becki Baergi marksi and luteolus are very much desert and sand occupants. Some of my favorites to keep.
