 |
|
Yesterday I had a nice surprise. When I went to look at my scorpion I saw she had lots of little babies on her back! Very cool sight 
I brought this scorpion with my when I got back from a visit in Israel in spring. Never expected to get babies this late. I just hope I can keep some alive as I have no experience with baby scorps. So tips are appreciated. They are Nebo hierichonticus BTW. |

i think you have to separate the babies into separate containers at some point. and they can eat pinheads or dead food till big enough for live. how big are they? and you must watch they dont fall into water bowls.

Leave em with the mum until after the first moult/shed, then stick em in a seperate container, keep them the same as the adults just have a slight increase in humidity.
Good luck with em

Of course 
This species is a bit irirtable, so I didn't want to annoy her too much.
If they survive the next few days I'll use a tripod next time I try to make some pics, should be better. |

Best to leave well alone, easy to stress like you say which could lead to her eating the babies.
Amazing pics of a very imo underrated sp.
