you mean Madussa??? the demon with snakes for her hair.. one look you turn into stone.. Greek Mythology..ur I.M sure are damn fast growers...

yap that she demon

imo, bark scopion grow faster than forgest land scorpion ........ from 1i to 2i the im scorpling normally take about 3 days ..
for the pst experience ... it took also abt 3 days to touch down ... from 1i to 2i..... where else afs takes about 1 to 2 weeks to molt from 1i to 2i

its like ghost town again....
The spinis babies are geting darker.. so they are approaching their 1st..
molt..

rideon, that is very fast of you spinifers to change colour. i don't see mine moving alot and they are still on the mothers back.

it doesn't help that the mother is not moving out of the hide. i can;t see anything yet from my brood. left a cricket in front of the hide but it is still there.

hmmm. the mother sure got a lot of reserved in her to not eat this long.

lol .... ghost town ... guess everyone is busy with their gfs

hi there lester, good news. i saw 1 of the scorplings already off the mothers back and moving at the hide entrance.

hmmm imo opion.. after they have touch down ..they can be seprated from their mum .. keeping the scoprling together is no problem but do put in excess food and clear daily moist the container well ...these scorpling drown easily

lol. touchdown. still thinking about it. will let you know after i make a decision.

they have gone a lil darker not dark as in dark.. but its not pure white anymore... the funny part is that one side of the brood are in darker tone and the other side is still cream-ish color... coz the mother gave birth like 4 days...
as for the splings, u can either separate them or communally.. but like lester has said.. have to feed them occasionally so there is no cannibalism and moist the subs... they do drown easily.. coz of their size...for me after these guys touchdown i will make 3 groups... Stay with mother,separate individually and place communally..
there are some theory that the one staying communally n with mum will grow faster compare to the individual ones.. so this is my project..

Rideon,i believe some of ur splings hav molted

good project rideon. not going to do any experiment on them yet. got other experiments and projects that need my attention for the time being.

care to share with us the results with us when you have the data?

will do... and i dont think they have molted... i dont see the exo.. or the long white string thing...

Nid better description about the "turn darker"

rideon, u know the drill, pictures please.

hi rideon... i have tried that experiemnt myself before..
personally these are my findings from my research ...

when the afs scorpling are house together .. they grew the fastest but the lag between the scopling molthing were abt one month different from the 1st scopling molting and the last scorpling molting
this might be due to competition of food etc and the 1st to molt will be the boss.... to show the rest who is the boss

When afs scorpling are house own it own they tend to molt the slowest.. taking forever to molt .... with compare to afs scolping house together .. the different can different by almost 2 months,
my afs scolpings all molted and it is only after 1.5 - 2 months that my afs scorplings that own its own start to molt......one by one .. reasons were unknow........ even tot they were all from the same batch ...

i did not conduct any experiment housing the scopling with their mum as i believe that the mum will consume the little ones when it start to be hungry .. it juz the matter of when it start hungry ....
do take note on tat ..

VERY IMFORMATIVE~ learn sumtin new today~ so after dis i will keep them communal..

Very true, they eat and moult more often when kept in a group .
