PostSubject: What to do if you are a noob and bought a pregnant emp?   2/24/2011, 10:48 am

When i bought my first scorpion, an emperor, i didnt know that often they could be pregnant. fortunately i got a male so it was all good.Ever since i read that females most likely are gravid when you buy them i was wondering what a noob(like myself) could do if he doesnt want to deal with ten more scorpions. i know that if i picked up a gravid female from the store i would be a little freaked out. My question is what could you do if you want to get rid of the babies. Can you sell them . where to sell them? any other suggestions?

I would say If you don't want to risk buying a gravid scorpion don't buy an adult lol, but is you did happen to get scorplings from a gravid one There are plenty of people willing to buy them or take them for free, you can advertise in forums or even ask a store if they want them, also you would get all the help you need with dealing with gravid scorps and scorplings from the awesome knowledgable helpful people on here!

how can you tell if the scorpion is mature? i heard that if emperors bulb is white than they are not mature and when it turns red they are . Is this true?

Yeah that's true White/ creamy is not adult, also the person yr buying from should know, size of scorpion is a good indicator too

I'm pretty sure you can give them to the same store you bought it from. You can also sell it to your friends/give them away.
