When raising these scorpions, what is the key? I know they are psammophiles, but do the young need high humidty to survive those early molts? Any knowledge from anyone with experience with raising these scorpions is greatly appriciated!

I think most of the success that has been had has been where a deep substrate is offered and the bottom layers kept somewhat moist while the upper areas are kept dry. Molting scorps burrow down to thier preffered moisture layer and build a chamber to molt in. They seal themselves in for awhile, maybe months, and don't emerge until they're done.

I had a juvie that sucesfully molted in this manner.
