Envyizm's scorpion pictures

Congrats!!! Absolutely stunning wish I could have one

Congrats!
Your adult female Hottentotta jayakari must be delighted with this handsome prince!
Look forward to see your success in these beautiful specimens

@ GS
Thanks for the kind words and yes, he really is a good looking specimen. Only down side to him is he a significant amount smaller than the size of my larger female and my jayakari male is about the size of your average Androctonus australis male. I can't wait to see how her genetics will influence the offspring. With my next rotation I'll be using a 20 gallon long size aquarium house the 10-20 I plan on keeping around.

I couldn't agree more on these gorgeous specimens of yours.
Do keep us updated on your developments and btw, this thread has already fall under my "watch" list

Regards,

Here is something to tide you over until I can steal my girlfriend's Hd flip to videotape the jayakari

Tityus simonsi 1.1 from the same brood male is what is considered "dark form" and the female is patternless

Kinky


I was originally keeping the species name as a little secret, but I figure I'll spill since they're getting bred.

Excellent! Keep us posted on your progress. I know someone else who's holy grail just matured, hint hint...

Got a new camera for Christmas and figured I'd test it out.

Hottentotta cf. polystictus (Probably really, really, really gravid)


4i Odonturus dentatus

^ it's saying Merry Christmas everyone (for all who don't speak Buthid)

Time to test the camera's macro capabilities
2i Parabuthus liosoma


3i freshly molted Liocheles australasiae

Great shots with your new toy and beautiful species
Congrats with the gravid Hottentotta cf. polystictus. I can see her beauty even more clearly with the new pics. Very nice "markings" on her back!

She´s absolutely gorgeous. Love the colouring on her back. Looks pretty much as plump as my H. cabo, maybe even a bit more.

She is really pretty and a smaller Hottentotta species at that. I can't wait to raise up a few generations. Unfortunately, due to their superficial similarities to trilineatus, they wont ever get very popular here in the states.

Wouldn't mind getting a couple or two if I see them being offered in europe.

During the blur that is classes and work, I tend to miss out on all the cool little things that happen when I'm away
Tityus bastosi


Hottentotta judaicus


Odonturus dentatus


Leiurus quinquestriatus doing the dirty "Advert your eyes, perverts!"

Sweet broods and specimens my friend.

I like the clarity of the pictures you posted.

Hottentotta judaicus' young are gorgeous. Purplish and exotic colorings!

Congrats bro! I'm drooling over that judaicus. Can't wait for warmer weather to finally get a pair for myself.

They're a really cool species and incredibly social. I've had a breeding group together for some time now. I only separate females when they become extremely bloated. The female pictured was removed not even 24hrs before she gave birth.

Thanks, they're truly a fun species to work with. I enjoy the fact that they are relatively consistent with their production and their broods aren't overwhelmingly huge either, not to mention their more than social nature. I'm currently keeping a jayakari trio with identical variables to my judaicus. I've seen a lot of social behavior out of them as well, although nowhere near the same caliber of the judaicus.

Managed to snap a picture with decent number of adult stigmurus in one shot, kinda thought it was neat.

It was not only neat but stunning bro!
You got a whole stigmurus factory out there indeed

you should see my baby stig nursery. I sold a ton last year and still have nearly 40 still hanging out in the nursery.

Great pic bro! Nicely aligned too!

Thanks, Dolby. I really enjoy keeping the Tityus genus as a whole, minus the attention to cleaning that I have to abide by.

This is my little golden child Tityus. She is a patternless Tityus simonsi/ecuadorensis and she is very much gravid. She just abandoned unfertilized embryos a few days ago, so I imagine she is nearing the end of her gestation. Keep your fingers crossed for me guys!





With some luck, I'll be posting pictures of dense little patternless simonsi clusters within a few generations of selectively breeding this species.

Sean,

Great pictures and you have an outstanding collection!
