One of my jacksoni (far left) went on a killing spree tonight. Completely ate the one in his mouth and had apparently stung the other one in the picture to death. Needless to say he now has his own cage, and his own name "Rampage". My jacksoni are usually so peaceful

you are aware that scorpions are immune to their own venom, so if they are stung by one of their own species it is doubtful death will occur from the envenomation.

 

[tabor]

Well I worded it poorly, he stung/fought with the other one (the one not in his mouth). I tried to remove him and nurture him back to health but he shortly succumbed to the trauma dealt to him by "RAMPAGE". Envenomation wasn't necessarily the cause of death, but the trauma from all the pinching/stabbing certainly was.

Nice pics Crono, I want one now!

Orthochirus scobiculosus negebensis

Some B. jacksoni molted for me tonight. 3 to be exact. Caught this one in the act, but a little late on grabbing the camera:

continuing on with the jacksoni this is RAMPAGE, cannabalistic bastard! took out two of his tank mates, a roach, and a super worm all in a week, turning into a blimp:

And now, my pride and joy, 4 Tityus astenes. theyre incredibly tiny and my camera sucks at macro so this the best i can do for know (betting on molts in a week or two):

 

[tabor]

T. stigmurus first, then some T. falconensis munching some crickets :

expect alot more and better quality as they grow! :clap:

 

[drapion]

Hey bro!!! You got some really nice Tityus there!!! i hope they produce tons of young for you but if not i know some one thats willing to always help you out .But just a little help..It seems to me that your keeping you B.jacks a tad bit to wet..At that instar it's easy to drowned them if they get stuck in a droplet of water..So you might want to let them dry out a little..

 

[tabor]

Yeah, right after I took that pic I turned to my brother and said "Damn dude that substrate is soaking!", turns out he got a little over zealous with the spray bottle We immediately changed out his substrate. Also, our molt count for our jacksoni we got from ron is up to 12 or so, all have gone good thus far so we must be doing something right!

BTW I need to talk to you and might call you right now in fact.
