i think it is a female too. i've been comparing the pectines and genitals pictures form my other longi and i really think it is a male.

i have to re take a few more pictures of my longis because i think we may have wrongly sexed them in V4.

i gave him a meal worm and it just grab it and started eating.

Only God know how long he have been hiding behind the crack at the medical ward. he is so thin.

funny enough i can't find pictures of my females in my pc. i really need to get pictures of their pectinals and genitals for documentation purposes.

done already. it is clean and it is now in a quarantine container for a few days to see if there is any mites on him. from my naked eye observation i cant see any.

i always do this to all of my scorpions. a very close up inspection using my eyes and also my camera.

i will spend hours analyzing the pictures.

lol super typo error. getting mix and confuse in my brain already.

who is "cik siti" rideon?

use rat glue on a cardboard. put a nice piece of ikan masin or hot dog on it and put it on the place you always see them passing by.
when you get one you can choose either option of killing them:

a. drown them in a bucket of water.
b. throw them out with the garbage.
c. if ur living near a busy street, just wait for a really big lorry to past by and just before the lorry past you just throw the cardboard with the mice so you can get nice mice pancakes.

i just realised that i have never posted any pic of the alleged female longi.

i really hope that i don;t have 4 males with me. if that is the case then it is a real problem for me.

@ rideon, i'll post them up tomorrow.

@joshkyj. i was wondering what is that foam doing in there in the first place too.

he did it again.

lester your collection is really growing.

i think i'm screwed.



just comparing the pictures of the genital and pectinal teeths, i came to a conclusion that all of my longis are male.

any other opinions?

yup. all are longis.

this is really scorpion maternity month lol.

after a month lets count how many spinifers were born in july itself.

so we are not in short of supply of spinifers.

i need a solid confirmation on the ses of the longis. if all are males then i will let them go for adoption.

i don't want a gay club in my room.

hahaha. i think i will propse to ryo to put up a AFS counter in the first page.

just for fun.

stupid of me not numbering the pictures.



no 1 adult
no2 adult
no 3 sub adult
no 4 juvinile

all are longimanus. need sexing urgently.
my thoughts are:

no 1: ????
no 2: male
no 3: male
no 4: male

going to ask ryo to put a sign post in the 1st page that sounds something like this " xxx AFS born in July 2009 alone"

good job rideon onthe pictures
i was so afraid of taking the pictures that it would cause the mother to go berserker again like in the first brood.

hahaha. fear of the unknown. a very sad man i am.

i am doing the picture ident another way.

i picture at a time.



male or female?

crazy la this afs month. we just flooded malaysia with a few hundreds of scorplings. hahaha.

yup. in the wild the survival rate is really very small. not considering the ones that are killed in forest fire cause by slash and burn farming techniques like they still practice here in sarawak.

it is a good thing to have a lot of them born. just prey that you don;t have the survival rate like my first brood. less then 0.5% survival rate.

oh how i hope that you have a nice dslr with a very good macro lens to capture the image.

it is really luck for you to have the mother giving birth in a position that is very good for documentation.
