| What is the survival chances on a Lq (X2) being confined for a week in a container, being shipped ( conveyor lines, plane, etc.)? |

| I'd say the same as if you left it in its tank for a week. _________________ If your emperor scorpion stops eating, don't panic. Be nice -- you were a noob once, too "Never ask an engineer to explain something, because he will."

| IMO Lq are much hardy sp.... normally they are able to survive thru a longer time during delivery compare to other sp...... but i not sure if it molt during delivery  |

| I've had a C. margaritatus arrive that had molted en-route. It did fine (for a month or so, anyway). Edit: wait, maybe it was molting when I opened the package . . . I forget.  _________________ If your emperor scorpion stops eating, don't panic. Be nice -- you were a noob once, too "Never ask an engineer to explain something, because he will."

| Thanks again "M"; I think the two Lq's I'm getting are in the molt process too (3I to 4I). |

| they should survive just fine, but there are more than enough CB LQ here in the states to make ordering from overseas an uneccessary pain in the rear.

| Believe me when I say, I have tried numerous dealers/breeder throughout the conus USA to try and find an Lq. I exhausted several by continously going back to them. I gave in when one of the fine people on here offered me a deal. If you know of any dealers/breeders here, please feel free to advise me as it wil be appreciated. |
