P.IMP BABIES!!

So Lets get started, 6 months ago so December, i bought my P.Imp From my local shop here in Ontario and she was FAT!

She popped the other day!
i was gonna change out her tank and put a couple more hides in it so when the babies start to come off theres a little bit more cover for them until i take them out when i lifted up her hide and BAM there was 5. put the hide down and did a quiet little dance lol. the last time she was in a position to be seen there was seven and this morning i looked with the black light through glass and i coulnt see her back! AWESOME! n e ways i got a couple pics from the outside of the tank to show you guys.


and a zoom in

Awesome "electrophyste" your a 'daddy'

oh ya the names Eric lol had this descution with Eddy

Congratulations!
You dont need to do a single thing until the babes come off mums back at 2I. At that point make sure one section, small section of the substrate is soaking so they can drink from the floor before you decide to remove them from mum...if you decide to remove them from mum.

Mine were 2 weeks and 1 day old when they all scattered off her back and 2 weeks and 5 days when I took them out. I only removed them from mum because I couldnt care for the tank, such as changing water as she was very defensive.
I had 19 scorplings!
I hope you get the same number or more...a big number is always good
xxxxxxxx

there is more now she has been nice enough to come to the front of her hut for us lol
saddly though there has been a casualty, it was on her arm and it must have bothered her when it was trying to move cuz she grabbed it and is eating it well she looks like shes eating it but if i have to loose one to gain 'x' amount then there we go.
im going to start a comunal tank and have it all set up b 4 there even ready to leave.
ill post pic as keep everyone posted

mabee she didnt eat it lol i think she grabbed it n put it in a more comfy spot lol but i got some pics too lol i gotta leave her alone. NO more.
(thats what i say now)

I had many walking on her claws, on the inside there at some times were two on the inside of each chela! they also hung out on her "tummy"
They will move about and will sometimes make you worry but since she has so many on her back, I dont think she is about to start feeding on them.

Looks like you have at least 10 babies so far! I can see they are piling up on each other

To keep the humidity up, pour the water in. In my eyes spraying doesnt hurt but...it makes noise and takes time. I took to pouring because mine would get cranky!

Having them all together when they come off her back is fine, its what ive done and all have survived...well...apart from one who died today but thats another story and not for this thread.

How wonderful to have little babies, it is such an exciting time!

it is my second time but the first was sad they all died i had troble with humidity in my M.Martenssii.

Congratulations on the new brood!

theres 19..

[b]made a new enclosure for all the babies not sut what gallon but its 36 inches long and 12 inches wide.
it looks great i took some pics of it so i can show everyone lol.
i know they wont be away from there mom for about another week or so put i couldnt resist it LOL.

Where have I been? Cograts.

looks like i need more stuff in my tank.. but then i wont see them. I love it! sick!

that setup is for the babies? those lucky little......

Might have a hard time finding the babies in there . . . they might have a hard time finding prey, too. It will sure make for an awesome community when they're adults, though.

what a wonderful set up but I have to agree! they might have a hard time finding food and/or you finding them!

All mine have in their little tank all 17 of them (one in own tank) is one big hide and a small lid for a water bowl!
They all have burrows and feeding time really is crazy!

im not too worried bout them not finding food.Well if i didnt supply an ample amount of medium crickets what ever they wont get ill leave in they catch them sooner or later i might also take some of the moss out though. there still about a week left b 4 they come off the mom so there will still be some rearranging lol

that tank looks awesome. im impressed

i try my best lol

Excellent!!! I love the bone yard, what died so you could decorate??? I used to have an extensive skull and bone collection when I was younger... I miss it now (all I have left is my Ursus americanus skull)

i think its a pelvic bone but a couple people tell me it might be a cor or something i dunno i like though
