Pandinus Exitialis

Does anyone have any info on this sp?

Also if you have any info on H.Madraspatensis that would be helpful too.

Thanks in advance

I think a few of the guys on VL keep this species . . . that's about all I know.

Ok cheers Mike, I might go have a look.

err... what? i knew there were a few species of pandinus (about 10) but never heard of this one! what do they look like?

The first three images. Quite a beautiful sp with interesting colouration.

looks like a cavimanus... yellower legs. where do you plan to get one? and why?
planning to breed them? are they less aggressive than cavimanus?

My local supplier can usually order in scorps for me and so i will see if he can get one.
If he can, then i might try to get a couple and breed them.
I honestly don't know yet what their temperament is like but i should think they'll be less aggressive than a cavimanus.

"Communal setups are possible, but like P. cavimanus they are known for eating cage mates."

not looking like they are less aggressive.

I don't see why you have come across all provocative since i posted in your other thread. I don't think you yet understand that i was commenting on an error, not having a go at you for it.

would you guys stop it and keep it friendly!? please!

I want to and i tried to leave it, but he just posted here in an offensive manner.

I am going to stop so i hope he does to

good to hear. i hope you can keep this forum friendly. it always has been and i hope that isnt going to start to change.
anyway, good luck with getting those scorps and breeding them. of course if you get a lot of babies i am sure i could make space for a few!

Yeah sure, i would be looking to sell them and spread them as it were. The issue now is whether i will be able to get a pair.. Only time will tell

and how was that offensive? just quoting from a care sheet. thats all.

He wasn't being offensive.

Both of you calm down.

ok then, Lucas, i apologize. I was in a bad mood yesterday so lets just leave it at that.

Hi Lucas, Welcome to the forum
