Chrome's picture thread

Deathstalker 2i's finally hardened, well most of them. The plastic in the vid is part of a few pieces of plastic lids put in to replace natural decor for ease of getting the 2i's out and into seperate containers without chasing them through cork bark or rocks.



Excuse the bad pics, camera wasnt working too well, not sure why.

They all look a bit orange. I like it.

wow nice pics im jealous!

Picked these up at the reptile show today, usually no one has scorpions here but these guys were brought up from the guy to went through ken the bug guy. Only way to get these out of america into canada is to buy them in america and cross the border stupidly enough.

Hopefully female


Male C. vittatus feeding


My Pokey ornata i finally got on camera striking and eating, ignore the puppy.

Funny P. trans vid


Another bicolor vid, bet you can figure out which is the psycho one

I'm still learning. These are hottentotta? Gorgeous scorps.

Sorry. The first 2 pics, not the whole thread

Anna, those are Centruroides vittatus.

Yup, Centruroides vittatus, my bad for not labelling.

Pics of the rehousing of the 2i deathstalkers, final count in all was 49, small for an LQ brood but the girl didnt get very big when preggo so it was kind of expected.

















Middle two latched are two more, doing an experiment seeing if LQ's grow faster in bigger environments, have 9 in bigger ones and the rest in regular deli cups.

Sometimes mine gets screwed if I access from the phone, and I won't get new notifications until I access the thread from the computer.

wow feeding times gonnna be fun now lol

I got notification this time

And What Bex Said

Haha yup, every saturday is a fun day at my place, gunna take an hour to get em all until I can sell half but that shouldn't be hard since these are in extremely high demand here in Canada.

Chrome,i appreciate seeing someone else taking precautions by storing scorps in a larger plastic container as well as their normal containers.
also i believe slings do grow faster and bigger in larger enclosures.i had ginormous i3 c.sculpts in the main viv and teeeeeny tiny i2 in delis at one point.when they turned i3 in the delis they werent as big as the ones ahead of em when they were i3.let us know how your experiment turns out.

Yea, I'll see and if the bigger enclosured ones all molt before the others i'll make a big transfer project into the bigger deli's, I bought 100 of em so it'll just take the time to do.

And yea, If I can't ensure a lockable container or a stable one I double case for more venomous, need a few more of those red topped quadruple locking ones, those are great for scorps.

Bunch more pics for viewing pleasure

Underside pic of Heteroscodra maculata showing female





Two little guys decided to fight over a cricket drumstick haha, one thought it was still alive and tried to sting it whenever the other pulled on it.













And more pics to show people how to feed such small scorpion slings without having to buy micro crix.

Got some new ones in, hooray. 5 A. australis, very beautiful ones I might add, and 3 A. bicolors, with a few males in there to pair with my 2 big girls.



Put one of the males in a mating bin with the female that had the last brood and he went right to work...sort of... at first he didn't know which end was her front end which was rather humorous to watch







THERE WE GO! GOOD BOY!





And two of the australis', the second one is a monster, it's tail and body are enormous compared to the rest.







PS. For those wondering these aren't the permanent enclosures, a few are being passed on and I have a bunch of acryllic enclosures in the mail, i'll post pics when I get it all ready.

Awesome, nice additions

A.A.'s are beautiful. Just beautiful.

Beautiful collection.

The photos of your dog made my laugh by the way.

Thought i'd show off some new enclosures i'm ecstatic with, perfect for my hot species.
6x6x6 acryllic lockable enclosures with dual steel mesh side screens.



SPIDER SCORPION!



Still have yet to transfer a few others to the remaining ones to clean up the racks.

Nice enclosures! I've been searching similar ones locally for most of my scorps, but 12x12x12's.

Nice where did you get those are they expensive?

Those are pretty nifty, they look nice
