| Hey I have a small emperor scorpion who looks gravid but i think is too juvenile to be sexually mature. I will try and get some pictures but it is hard since it loves to run into its burrow a lot. I was just wondering at what point in an emps life are they able to become gravid? Thank you  | |

| In short, a mature emp would have a brownish red telson, if it's a lighter colour (white, creamish, etc) it would be either a juvenile or sub-adult. | |

| Soon is a bit of a gamble with these slow growing buggers. I've had this little guy for 2 months looking like this and nothing yet...  | |
