my female scorpion has given birth. I must've got her gravid. Any tips for ensuring a good survival rates for the babies and health of the mum?
when will the babies moult for the first time, what will they eat?

They’ll molt in a week or two, at which time they will leave the mothers back. At this point, if you want to give them the best chance of survival, I would separate them into small deli cups or other small containers. They’ll eat flightless fruit flies and maybe pre-killed crickets

So they'll moult out in a week or 2?
Or do I just separate out when they've hopped off mums back, whether they're black or white?

They shouldn’t come off her back until they molt
