Awesome pics

Great photos, what kind of plant is that?

Thanks Bex.

Bedlam, it's a Crassula spp. don't know the exact sub-species though.

I'm changing the subject of this thread. I will be adding here some pictures of my collection, and keep everything in one thread, a bit like some of you are already making.
To start, here's a pic from one of my H. Laoticus. I'm till trying to master the camera settings, so if the quality is not good, please blame in on me lol

That Laoticus seems a bad [buttocks]!

I love Heterometruses, much cooler than Pandinus IMO. I'm still way behind though, want some Madraspatensis and Swammerdami first, then Spinifer, Cyaneus..etc etc.. the list goes on

Yes I think they have more attitude than P's too.. but as said, thats personal :-)

we love our 5 madras and our swammi is a porper character he is awesome actually hoping he is gona molt soon

Which ones of the hets are the warhungry ones? Or is it up to the individual specimen?

They are all individually different i think we seem to be quite lucky and get semi feisty ones lol

I really like your H. Laoticus bro.
Full jet-black colorings.. adds in to the mystery and evil aura

Got these yesterday.
13 2i Buthus occitanus

They are sooo cute what's that container your using? is that a Carlos order?

like the container too with the removable cups

Nice buddy! Enjoy your desert scorps, I know you will!

Thanks all.

Yep, it's a Carlos order, I'm sure soon I'll make another one
The container is from the hardware store down the street Not very convenient though, as I can't open the compartments separately, and I already had 2 scorps flip over to a neighbour compartment. So, I will probably move them to small delicups like the one you can see in the picture.

Btw. Got a new T today. 3rd instar Nhandu chromatus. Will try to take a pic or two later.

Ye they rule. Do keep in mind however i2 scorpions still are very vulnerable during the next moult. After that, they should be fine.

And tbh there is not much you can do to make sure they all get to i3.... So it's a good thing you have many. I chose the same path with the A.m.'s

I thought about Streettrash here, that took great care of an A.b. and till it got stuck in a moult. So I took reserve.

I might sell 5 to friends and keep 8, to be sure I'll get one couple to adulthood.

That wont be a problem dude..
I masked the separators with scotch tape and havent had any crawlers anymore...
Also, when you give me a scorpion I make a fatty out of it within two days.

So with mine, they are too fat to climb now, this gives them reserve to grow fast and prevent crawlers.. so I dont mind looking at a fishstick for the duration of their first instars.. up till i4

I am not joking. If you feed them like a pig they stop climbing!

Your first set of pics you have posted up, is that a breeding pair of LQ's or are the both same sex?
