A.a.

This is my first time taking pictures in a while, so not many turned out. Here are the two that did. Both are of my unsexed behemoth of an A. australis.

Kindest kindest,

Here's my horrible mistake and decision which I love. My first (yes that's right first) scorpion, a Centruroides excilicauda. Yes I was an idiot to bring it in but I've created a system which doesn't let him sting me in any way. Here are some pictures.

Hey
nope, my females need 1 more moult, and my males need either 1 or 2 till adulthood

when i went on holiday they all went without food for about 6 weeks, and since then they havnt grown as fast as before :(

or maybe its normal for them
im also having to keep them at room temp for another week, so after then, ill be able to mate them, (i hope the wc male lasts :S)

how big are yours now Oliver? this WC male is absolutely huge! its very very lanky, like a twig, its longer than some of my forest scorps!

Mine are about 5-6cm long at the moment, I think 1 or 2 moults left. I'm not sure about Giorgio's ID (though he's probably right ;) ), there are actually some species that look very similar to T. paraensis. When they next moult I'm going to sit down and see if they are indeed paraensis.
