They just impress us in many forms.... even at young age and that small they can be so independent... remarkable creatures...

QUOTE(rideon @ Aug 7 2009, 10:45 AM) The female as in urs or Rafiq? On the Captive breeding: Rafiq has stated all there. He is more experience that all of us put together. As for AFS, there are already tons on CB specimens out there y still choose a WC? Yes CB specimen does started from WC, But since we hv breed and raie their youngs for years now it is wise to buy from breeders. I know a guy who experiment in their size and took care lke a dozen of AFS since babies. But then again, this is rather a sensitive issue to some, sellers and pure hobbyist. The decission is yours. Like Rafiq has said "But believe me, when you see the sight where these scorpions are packed into small sealed plastic bags (yes plastic bags), piled knee-high into foam boxes and transported like fish to the market. Your heart sinks. Mine did." Please think... hmm female belongs to rafiq ...... mine is male ...........

My current barkscorpion casualty count within 2 weeks:
Lychas scutilus 0.1.0 (I'm really sorry Lester - will post a pic later) Centruroides vittatus 0.1.0 Centruroides gracilis 0.1.xx (died in parturition) Centruroides hentzi 0.0.1
A fickened month it is. I'm beginning to wonder if my room is turning into an oven.
Rideon - I'm passing Alex and you both of my remaining C.hentzis. I hope you guys will share them as part of your scorpions. Work for breeding.

lol.very rare you will see a spinifer sting its prey.
if ur worried then just throw it away.if ur not then just give it.
if it dies afterward then we know that we shouldn't give leftovers to our pets.
