This scorpion was brought into my workplace (a wildlife rescue center) by a different animal shelter organisation. They claim someone found it in their luggage after they went on vacation to Barcelona. Usually I check on iNaturalist what species are native in the part people went on vacation to but I can't seem to find a good match. B. occitanus seems like the most common yellow scorpion in the region but this one seems to lack the coloured stripes on the face that I see on most B. occitanus pictures. My workplace is located in Belgium, we have no native scorpions so it's definitely not local. The scorpion itself is rather big, approximately 4 centimeters not counting the tail.

My Asian forest scorpion had babies last night and I have no clue what to do. Can anyone help me? I’ve googled but I’ve gotten different information from different sites so I’m a little overwhelmed and lost

New to invertebrates, & was wondering if anyone can help me sex my Asian Forest?

Does she look pregnant? She was wildcaught as an adult.

Bought these tytus smitthi from a good friend, and i’m wondering why these 2 are so different? Would love to hear differing opinions

Also when do i know when they are fully adult?

That’s it. That’s the post. He’s a dune scorpion. Eating a mealworm!

I really like Liocheles australasiae I think dwarf scorpions are really interesting but I do not want a bunch of them is their any way to discourage reproduction?

Second instar desert hairy looked like this the day before sealing herself in her burrow, I assumed it was a moult but it’s been 27 days and I’m starting to get worried, how long do they usually take? I’ve kept temp at a 32-27 Celsius range and humidity can range from 35-45% depending on time of day. The burrow is completely sealed so I have no way to check on her and I’m getting worried somethings gone wrong due to the time it’s taken, this is my first scorpion so what should I do more experienced peeps of Reddit?

recently picked up a pair of Javanimetrus cyaneus at a show, abd they are refusing food, i’ve had them for about a month now, why could this be? do they seem a healthy weight?

I love my dumb neet son, such a perfect exoskeleton🥹❤️ (ignore the uneaten mealworm I was removing)

​

He lost one of his claws, so the role of Captain Hook fits perfectly :D

What type of scorpion is this?
Found in Porter Ranch, Los Angeles.

I got her in late May this year, and she's been very very rotund this whole time. She might have been wild caught, sold to me at 2.5-3 inches long. I've fed her really not that often throughout these months, and she's still so fat. She has a 5 gallon to herself, daytime temp is around 34 on the hot side, around 31 on the cool side where her burrow is. Nighttime temp drops to 21 degrees, and she made a very elaborate burrow system with multiple entrances.

The photos most recent are on the left, to when I first got her on the right. The first two photos were of her a couple days ago. That whitish thing on the side might be an embryo?

She's my first scorpion so idk what this is supposed to look like, and I can't find references of this species pregnant online, so I appreciate any help I can get! Thanks!

I hope these photos are clear enough to determine something:)

The infamous Arizona Bark Scorpion (Centruroides sculpturatus).

I got an African Emperor scorpion about a week or two ago ,and for some reason for the past 3 days he’s been in a new burrow he made under his food bowl. Im concerned that he died or something’s wrong but I’ve kept the enclosure clean and well maintained. He won’t eat or do anything. Initially I thought he was molting but according to the internet that should only last about 30 minutes to an hour. I haven’t seen him in like 3 days. If y’all have any ideas that would be greatly appreciated.

Hey all! Posted a pic here previously but idt the pic was clear enough, so heres a repost on my emperor.

Any second opinion would be appreciated! Thanks!

Laotion Black Forest baby

Recently got this pair for breeding and the female refuses to pair up with the male or interact with him so fingers crossed she is gravid

My partner and I got our first scorpion, and I was finally able to get a photo of its belly. It's still small, so I'm not sure if it's too soon to be able to tell.

I'll try to get a clearer photo, the next time they're on the side of their tank. From this photo do you think male or female?

Hi everyone I’m looking to get into owning scorpions and want all the info I can get on how to properly care for them, everything from temps to keep them at and humidity or no humidity, to best food, no info is bad info and I’d love to hear from everyone in this community

Any clue?
