| Hello all, I'm kind of concerned with one of my scorplings. I saw it eating something that looked like another baby scorpling but the "corpse" looked too white almost looking like a molt. So my question is, do they eat molt or did this one take advantage of another baby going through a molt and ate it? From my last count of 13 scorplings, I only found 6 molts for them to be at 3I. Here are a few pics:    | |

| As far as I know scorpions dont eat their own moult. It probably was one of his siblings. | |

| Yup. Looks like you are right. When he got to eating the mesosoma, he tore it in pieces and it's obvious that it was another sibling.  | |
