What should I do????!!!!* Most of the scorpion available in the pet trade are mostly wild caught or being keep communally It's not odd to find that your Scorpion suddenly gave birth after keeping it for 1year because their gestation period can range from 8-13months depending on their diet, environment and other factors So this is what I do when I notice my Scorpion gave birth last year Step1: Leave the mom alone until she finish giving birth » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « If you think she will finish giving birth within few hours you are wrong The process can last as long as 1-2days with 15-30 scorpling When giving birth both of her front leg will be positioned below its body and raised her front part up, forming a basket to support the newborn babies as in this pic Picture from: http://www.atshq.org/forum/showthread.php?t=20065 The babies will come out from the genital opperculum Just leave her alone until the process finish and maintain the humidity Step2: To feed or not to feed? » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Eventually after giving birth, usually the mom will consume 1 or 2 of the scorpling to recover her energy While most people argue that we don't need to feed the mom after the process but i hand feed mine with a dead cricket directly in her pedipalp and I have none of my scorpling being consume by the mom The next thing to do aftter feeding/seeing she eat her baby is to left her alone with the babies until they eventually molted in 1-2weeks time Before the baby molt, they dun need to eat nor drink so don't worry Do not remove the baby from the mom's back, they will die if they fall off from the mom's back If you happened to see a scorpion on the substrate you can try dropping it back on the mom's back but if it doesn't work, you may want to try this: http://venomlist.com/forums/index.php?show...27&#entry156427 P/S: U can only see the picture after register and logged in How to see if the scorpling have molted or not? » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « This is how they looks like before they molt And this is them after molt Notice the different of the body shape and color, also there are alot of dried skin on the mom's back Step3: Separating the scorpling » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Few days after the babies molted they will eventually begin to leave the mom back You can now start separating the babies from the mom by scooping them up with a spoon into another container House the babies in a container with damp Coco Fiber substrate and maintain the humidity You can choose to house them individually or communally Each way have its own pros and cons so its up to you to decide This is how i house my babies They are still quite fragile in 2nd instar and tend to die when they molt to 3rd instar The key is to keep the substrate damp (Not wet!) and make sure your scorpling is hydrated to keep them survive With this method i have successfully raised 30 scorpling to 2nd instar out of 31 scorpling, 1of them died cause felt from the mom's back FAQ Can I feed my scorpling before they molt? » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « No, their chelicarae are not developed yet in this stage so they can't eat In this stage they don't need to drink or eat, they rely on the nutrient in their body until they molt When can i start feeding my scorpling? » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Few days after they molt to 2nd instar Do not feed them straight away after they molt as they are very fragile in this stage, they need time for their exoskeleton to harden up What should I feed to my scorpling? » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « You can start with beheaded mealworm, just behead it and throw into the container and leave it If by the next day its still there then take it out and try again Soon after few weeks they should have no problem with a live mealworm Cricket drumstick are also another good alternative Disclaimer: This method is only apply for Heterometrus and Pandimus Sp, for other sp, they need different care For bark scorpion can refer to: http://www.mtsociety.com/forums/index.php?topic=290.0 For desert scorpion can refer to: http://www.mtsociety.com/forums/index.php?topic=291.0 This post has been edited by *FallenAngel*: Nov 5 2009, 07:27 PM
