So today, in fact just now at 2am, i was lucky enough to see my emp hunt and kill the cricket i left in about 2 days ago.

The cricket got stiuck between a rock and the tank wall, so slowly but surely, the scorpion burrowed to the side and started ripping it to pieces, leg by leg, which, as you can imagine was truly fascinating.

But as it was being killed, the cricket started to vomit... or something? The mouth spewed yellowish substance, does it do this for a reason... or purely because its dieing? i didnt now they did this

could be the cricket pinched it's insides out. Or it could be a parasite I've seen something similar but I don't think it's the latter.

It's a defense mechanism to squirt gross stuff out of orifices. Like when grasshoppers spit brown stuff on you, or when roaches poo on you.

Ah i see. Well, it didnt work! ha

Iv seen locusts spew but iv never seena cricket do it lol
that being said I agree with mike

Had a "Haddy" munch the head and the opposite end office spewed and it switched and started eating from that point; Scorps can smell? lol

well it looked like vomit or something that i now have to clean of the side of the tank. maybe the thing just panicked
