New Scorps!!!

I got these guys in the mail today. To be honest, I couldn't sleep from the excitement. I received a male B. jacksoni that was supposed to be female, more on this later, a Grosphus grandidieri female (I think?), and some sweet Heterometrus longimanus babies! I was pretty pumped about the freebies. Now I have three H. longimanus that I'm keeping communally. It's really cool to see them buddy up and eat together. Anywho... the jacksoni. He is a beautiful male, simply gorgeous specimen. He was supposed to be a she though! The seller was very cool in handling the mixup. He'll be sending me a female free of charge and will let me keep the male. Sweet! I don't have a need for two males though and sold my smaller one to a friend. The Grosphus grandidieri is a stunning species. Charcoal black with some rusty shaded tips. Huge telson on this one. I'm going to post some pics in a thread to try and confirm the gender. Here's some pics!!!

More pics of Grosphus grandidieri

Here is my awesome male Groshpus grandidieri. To my surprise he was not very aggressive or too flighty either. Of course, that doesn't mean I'm putting my guard down anytime soon. Here's some pics!









Thanks for looking!

My pal has been raggin' me pretty hard to get some more marshalli pics up. Well, I risked it all and managed to not get bit! She is one very unhappy girl. Oh, and you're welcome buddy!

Check out this new suit...

And this is why I wanted a Brachypelma emilia!!! Insane colors!!! There was a ton of growth this molt which really surprised me. The abdomen was really big for the size of the t and I figured that like my B. albiceps would have carried a lot of that size over to the next molt. Nope! All went into overall size.






And check out this pretty sight:





Awesome!!!!

New addition!!!

Here's my newest scorp. I still need to get some pics of the last couple as well! She's a Parabuthus transvaalicus and I believe her to be gravid.
