Thanks Michiel...actually this is only one of 3 females that i have at the moment with young on their backs.
I have a communal setup with what i thought was 2.2 however the other day when i had a clean out in their terrarie i discovered 3 of the scorpions had young on their backs (the male had been busy!).
I don't know when they had them but there was a definite difference in the development of the young. As you can see in the picture the young are very advanced so i'm guessing that they are a couple of weeks old. The next scorpion down had young who had only just gone L2, while the last scorpions young were still white...

It was a very pleasant surprise...;)
