| Firstly sorry about the bad quality of pictures my camera is useless  and im not to sure about the sex yet i have yet to find out i will wait to he/she grows a bit more though. i tried feeding him/her a cricket but he/she just didnt want it so now there is just a cricket roaming around in there so will he kill when he wants it?    | |

| They can take a little while to adjust to a new home and might not eat right away. Some people take the crickets back out and try again in a few days. I leave crickets in the tank until they are eaten, but then you also have to watch to see if the crickets die on their own first, and take the dead ones out so you don't get mites. | |

| that looks like a 5i...
only because it looks the same size as my baby...
if you wanna feed it something, make sure the feeder in question fits in the pinchers..
emps rarely sting, so itll use its pinchers to do the most damage | |

| if its as skittish as mine, just drop like 3 crickets slightly larger than pinheads in the tank, turn off the lights, and walk away for a few hours...
if its not, try holding the cricket (or whatever feeder) by the body and directly hand it to the scorp
i do this with my other adult female when theres a spare cricket or 2 left in the tank | |
