|  I went in to check my scorps and my Heterometrus spp was dead. He was just laying there, no apparent reason why he died. Can anyone offer any insight? I was keeping him as a rainforest species, gave him the proper humidity and things, so I can't think of anything. | |

| If JUST the carapace and mesosoma were three inches, it was probably an adult. If so, it was most likely old age, and nothing that would put you at fault. | |
