| Keep her dry and cool(no higher than 77F or so) and hopefully she will pop for you(She appears gravid) I used to have a bunch but they all died except one because I did not keep them dry and they were to warm. | |

| Here is a male Bothriurus keyserlingei to show how much they look alike  The only difference is the sternum shape is elongated like <> in all Bothriurus species. Adult female Caraboctonus  Juvenile Caraboctonus  | |

| Can these be kept communally? I keep one at temperatures ranging from 85F to 70F (day and night) and he/she eats like a beast!  | |

| Nice looking female Smoo!
The ones I kept at those temps all stopped eating and died but they might have been Bothriurus sp. and not Caraboctonus.
Personally I would not keep them in a colony but you can try but don't be surprized if some go missing. | |
