Nice collection! It never bores me to see more pics of H. jayakari, they are beautiful scorps. Keep it up!

Thanks shadow foot.

Jayakaris are really lovely. I fell in love with them instantly when I first saw them.

just got my first hottentota tamulus from a trusted seller last night. will post pics later.

adult female hadogenes paucidens

Is that sand or gravel you have in there? I would use peat for most Hadogenes spp.
Nice paucidens btw.

thanks shadowfoot. will try replacing it's substrate next week. thanks for the info man. anyways, do you think this female is gravid? TIA

You wouldnt really know as these scorps have crazy long gestation periods.
Also, like Scorpion said on your other thread, I have never heard of double clutching in them.
