I Love these little guys!!

I'm glad your Emps are doing good! They're cute lil buggers

Yeah it stinks, I only get to keep 1! The rest are already sold!

If it stinks, then why'd you sell them?

Feel free to post your experiences in the breeding reports section. Just read the guidelines first.

Because I got some great Ts in trades! and Im buying some more adults for new blood anyways so its fine.

Couple o mine are loosin their baby chub I notice. Mine gave birth easter morning
Pretty soon theyll be movin around off of ma's back. Couple people wanna buy some, but im all defensive of them lol
I drill them to see how much they know and what they need to know

Dunno if im gonna divide them up in deli cups like that. Or just keep them communual

awesome news man. allso, SOY, you'll get higher survival rates if you keep them seperate, but if you keep them in a little commune a few will die off, but it will ensure the fittest, healthiest scorpions survive.

I have a quick question MattP - what did you put on the bottom of the plastic where you are keeping your scorplings? my emp just agve birth and they're still on their mother's back but I want to know what I can do to start preparing for seperating them when they're ready. Thanks

I ripped paper towel into squares and moistened them with a spray bottle!

Then I cut a 1inch cricket in half and put a half in each container!
I like that better then pinheads because all the guts are right there and it seemed to attract ALL of my babies.

SOY?

SOY is me SickOfYou (Its a GWAR song), he was commenting on my debate of housing together or dividing
Din mean to hijack your thread! sorry

Also was 12 the total count of your brood? Assuming 12 counting the deli cups

15 was the total count. 2 didn't make it through there 1st molt and one was deformed, it had a bent tail and died after about 3 days.

But the 12 that are left are looking Great!
