I'm mainly a tarantula guy but own a O.walhbergii (possibly glabrifrons). Anyway I'm a bit of noob when it comes to the finer points of scorpion keeping (got a couple of books but they are lacking).
I noticed today while feeding that my scorp started rubbing its aculeus across the back of its mesosoma. Is this normal or an indication something may be wrong?
Its about 3 inches from telson to chelicerae. I keep on 4 inches of peat with a piece of cork bark. The peat is slightly damp (i.e. not bone dry).
While I have your attention, is there any major difference in lifespan between male and females as in tarantulas (could seem to find the answer)?
Thanks.
