ok
but i;m not pro
just trying only.

dirty little fellow ain't he?

my longimanus has developed an appetite for house roaches.

don't know where the roach came from. just say the remains of the wing inside the enclosure. by the way it is the new guy who ate it. the one in transit for relocation.

Added on August 8, 2009, 6:55 pmi'm devastated. there is 1 area that i wanted to have a look for sometime already but didn't had the time. what i saw today really shock me. this is what i saw





the whole place has been burnt down for farming. the coordinates are "

+2° 17' 17.97", +111° 58' 14.46"

why does the people here use slash and burn technique for farming when there are better more productive method of farming?

i dont mind if the farmers burn their own fields but this was a forest that was untouched for years.

it don;t belong to anyone and the trees were so beautiful and nice to look at. now it's just burning.

the haze you see in the picture is cause by the smoke form the burning.

i'm not against development but why can't we practice eco friendly development method?

want to build 1 building 3 acres of trees at the building site are felled. why??

that is a longi. i tried out on the 5i spinifer and its still the same,
adult longi don't have the same level of glutton thou.

nah. only once.

now all on fasting period until slim down
only can get water only.
join us in msn?

fat scorpions=fat human

unhealthy. can kill them quickly.

now i'm regretting making my longi fat like lester's scorpions..

all of your scorpions looks like they can survive a 3 month long package trip lester. with all that nutrient stored inside of them.

just look at at the size of the stomach on them.

makes an interesting reading

Malaysia is a hub for a multi-billion-ringgit global trade in illegal wildlife

the time for them to molt from 2i > 3i is as unpredictable as a girl in PMS.

just 1 more thing to add to ryo's advice:

dont handle that scorpion. don't even think of touching it.

use a 10 inch tongs for feeding, cleaning etc.

leet all of them are very2 healthy. and fat.where you got them?

lol. me name and hyorinmaru also got involve.lol

there is one old saying.

" if your want to play with fire, be sure you are willing to get burn"

not an insult but a friendly reminder to all of us in this field of exotic venomous animals.

haih. i sound like an old pakcik already.

all of us are fussing about it but where is k.fai anyway?

his safety is our priority. lol. we area a protecttive bunch.lol.

lets just this issue go past and help k.fai or any other who are interested in getting a scorpion, hot or cold by providing the relevant data, caresheets, enlcosure information, and anything that might be useful for those who are and want to keep scorpions as a hobby.

i dont want us to be divided on this issue. it is more productive for us to get our heads and experience together then argue among ourself about hot and cold scorpions ownership.

i do sound like an old pakcik.

i'm not that old la.

haih.

que serra,serra. what will be will be.

erm as big as my thumb. this is a rough estimate 2cm wide, 6cm long. head to body not including tail.

too big is it?

yup its the longimanus. the 2 in quarantine.
maybe la. i hope they are not picky eaters.

but i have observed them not eating for long periods of time even thou food is abundance and they are really thin.

i guess thats just how they are.

they just eat what they need and not being a glutton. but this is observed in adult longimanus. the juveniles as you can see in 1 of the post by me not to long ago just eats what it can as long as it can.

we are off for a break. we will be right back after a msg from our sponsors.
