| AWESOME tarantula!!  Much cooler than B. smithi in my opinion. I have to say I'm a little jealous of Adam. _________________ If your emperor scorpion stops eating, don't panic. | My reviews | My Bug Pictures | My blog Be nice -- you were a noob once, too "Never ask an engineer to explain something, because he will." |

He is very pleased with his gift and strangly so am I! I wont touch it or hold it though, and im sure he wont but...never in a million years would I hold something as big as that

He did mist the tank last night, she/he didnt like it. nearly ran out the tank. was only ONE spray. in the morning he/she was on the glass...I guess wanted to get higher up and dryer? or maybe just chilling out on the glass by the "air" bit

And, you should keep them on a thick layer of peat. As a first T, I thinks most people will find them boring, since they spend the most of their lives safely hidden in their burrows. |

| we wont be buying any more for a long while yet. I have always just found the colbalt very attractive with its lovely bright blue.
But scorpio, we have a brachypelma Emilia not anything else at the moment. |

| Well, it looks like a great first tarantula to me!  Lori says this is a gorgeous species. Funny thing about the cobalt -- our friends' is NEVER out of its burrow, but when Lori and I bug-sat it was out every night!  It must have liked us. _________________ If your emperor scorpion stops eating, don't panic. | My reviews | My Bug Pictures | My blog Be nice -- you were a noob once, too "Never ask an engineer to explain something, because he will." |

| Probably. Just give it some time; Lori's brachys don't web a whole lot. Neither does her rosie, actually. _________________ If your emperor scorpion stops eating, don't panic. | My reviews | My Bug Pictures | My blog Be nice -- you were a noob once, too "Never ask an engineer to explain something, because he will." |
