 | Subject: 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!  _________________ |  | | 48+ Scorpions, 6 Tarantulas, 2 snakes & 2 Mantids - Click Here: | | | Snakes x 2

| 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? |

| 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. |
