| There's quite a good chance I'll be getting a Babycurus jacksoni within the next week or so! My local exotic pet shop has them in stock fairly sporadically and the lady told me she'll be keeping her eyes peeled for them next time they order stuff! What's everyone else's experience with this species been like? | |

| They are way cool scorps! They will live communally quite well if well fed. You might think about getting a few! | |

| One my favorite hardy specie. Beautiful brick red color. Watch the sting. And provide lots of climbing bark and keep the enclosure fairly humid. They'll be ok communally but younger ones are know to cannibalize during molts if you're not careful. | |

| Yes, do watch the sting! A friend of mine got tagged by a baby when he picked up a cork bark hide and the scorp quickly ran around from below and stung his hand. He said his hand swelled up and turned red for about 6 to 8 hours, very painful.
They blend in very good with their environment and are excellent climbers. You can look right at them and not see them. Use tongs for working in their cage! | |
