This is the only image he took of the scorpion. Multiple bananas for scale. (Note: at work, responses will be slow.)

I don’t expect sympathy since it’s my fault. Just a reminder that you shouldn’t get into keeping hot animals if you don’t take the necessary precautions. Especially death stalkers

Help! My scorpion had babies. I thought it was a male and was NOT prepared. Next steps ?

4.8k Upvotes

Honestly I didn’t bother checking for gender when I bought her, I figured she was going to be alone anyway so this wouldn’t be problem. Any ideas on how she could have had babies with no mate ? I got her in March it kinda blows my mind.

Anyways , I’d love advice on the next move. Do I get a bigger enclosure and then sell them? I’ll probably keep one or two but that’s all I want honestly.

She hasn’t eaten in almost two weeks but seems to just keep being chunky. The rest of mine are tarantulas so she’s got me all confused. Got her mid June and I’m hoping she’s just a big girl.

I know it's a bark scorpion and is not normally lethal, phew. It was in my pants and stung me on my right sidenof my right thigh. I have a bug bite sucker so I used that. I'm pretty sure.i got a good bit of venom out but not all, I can feel it. I circled the area with a marker. What should be my next steps? It was more.painful before I got some of the venom out.
