haha get some pictures up soon dude
and also welcome to the forum

I feed my little guys about once a week. One of mine has matured, so I feed him about once every 2 weeks now. Just keep half of the substrate moist and a vertical hide in there for them to molt on and they'll be fine. Oh and I don't use a heat source, as they stay around 75-80F most of the time.

May i put the red lamp outside the terrarium,tarantulas not see the red light so probably scorpions not see the red light?

Your right scorpions dont see the red light

Thanks,i am new in this so i have many questions.Is the temperature 21c all the time good or bed?In my room is 21c all the time,sometimes can be 24-26c when i heat the room.

They'll do fine in those temperatures. A heat source really isn't required. Only my emps are heated out of all of my inverts. My room is about that cold at night because I have have a dual fan in the window and some of the cold air blows back in. All of my B. jacksoni are doing great under the conditions I have them in and they seem to be "happy"

I've kept many species (including this one) at room temperature; they should be fine.

This is my first scorpion so i want to make a god place to live for him.

That makes you sound like a responsible hobbyist.

When I had a community of B. jacksoni this is what the setup looked like:



Some would hide under the bark, some would just hang out on the side of it. You can see two "hiding" on the right side of the photo as well as one sitting on the bark on the left.

Cool picture,nice terrarium,may i stole your idea?

Go for it.

Thanks,i will put pictures soon.

This picture is old few days.Fresh molt.I don't have internet some time so i couldn't upload pictures.

Nice! Fresh molts are always fun.

Some new pictures.

Very nice D@n...I love these guys. One of my chocolate morphs just molted to 5i. Likely a female, so she may have one more in her. One other chocolate is getting chubby, but could be awhile before one of the reds is ready. Hoping they will all get going within the next month. Your little one has very nice coloration. Great species!
