Look who molted!! Scorpo's baby!! I don't think I've posted about it but I finally named her.. her name is Skorupi 🦂 (after a scorpion pokemon lol)
She's still doing well. Growing slowly. Still unsure if she was a partho baby or if scorpo was wild caught and retained sperm for almost 2 years (which seems too long imo?)

Invertober 2023!
Invertober is back! The (mandatory) drawing challenge where you draw an invertebrate every day. It's for everyone and *mandatory.* Last year they had no ants on the list! I was very upset... this year there is one ant... an improvement, still so much more room to grow!
Let's shoot for 10 ants next year.
OK here is what you need to draw each day for the month:
Sunburst diving beetle (Themanectus marmoratus)
Silvery leaf cutter bee (Megachile leachella)
Little fire ant (Wasmannia auropunctata)
Emerald green snail (Papustyla pulcherrima)
Citrus root weevil (Diaprepes abbreviatus)
Coconut octopus (Amphioctopus marginatus)
Common banded hover fly (Syrphus ribesii)
Calico Crab (Hepatus epheliticus)
Elephant hawk moth (Deilephila elpenor)
Periodical cicada (Magicicada septendecim)
Fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster)
Eelgrass isopod (Pentidotea resecata)
Devastating grasshopper (Melanoplus devastator)
Blue glaucus (Glaucus atlanticus)
Owlfly (Libelloides macaronius)
Fuchsia flatworm (Pseudoceros ferrugineus)
Blue morpho (Morpho peleides)
Reddish-brown stag beetle (Lucanus capreolus)
White-spotted jellyfish (Phyllorhiza punctata)
European mantis (Mantis religiosa)
Pink crab spider (Thomisus onustus)
Red velvet ant (Dasymutilla occidentalis)
Asian forest scorpion (Heterometrus spinifer)
African monarch (Danaus chrysippus)
Horned sea star (Protoreaster nodosus)
Torpedo bug (Siphanta acuta)
Iceland scallop (Chlamys islandica)
Striped pajama squid (Sepioloidea lineolata)
Tiger centipede (Scolopendra polymorpha)
Leopard slug (Limax maximus)
Halloween pennant (Celithemis eponina)
Tumblr media
Let's goooo!

He looks so much better! The granulation on his "cheeks" helps identify him as a Heterometrus silenus, h. laoticus will have no granulation and h. spinifer and longimanus will have more granulation. H. silenus also has a unique sexual dimorphism where the movable finger has a large bump on the cutting edge in males. The chela (hand) of the claw is also rather smooth.

@hedonistic-merneith submitted: Here's my juvenile/sub-adult seemanni in the meantime, Still have my scorpion too, both have been unusually active lately and I don't trust it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
My adult seemanni thinks we live in a society and is staying in her burrow so no pictures. Her carapace has dirt on it and the desire to brush her off is really strong.
My juvie has almost hairless feet and has grey hair so she's probably in premolt too. At this point I expect 3 molts before february. Hopefully I can get bins before then so humidity can be maintained easier.
I, too, think we live in a society so that's a mood and I respect her. Perhaps they've been active because they are partying for the coming New Year. Please....tell them they're beautiful and perfect

ALRIGHT DUDES ITS BEEN FUCKING MONTHS BUT WE'RE BACK TO HIT YOU WITH SOME FUCKIN UHHHH
Tumblr media
So continuing from the last baby mode update [Found Here!] where we had started to see some scorplets walking alongside their mother...
A lot has happened!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Departure, migration, collection!! Little pale dudes. How many do we have total?
Tumblr media
=>
Tumblr media
Ah, yes. 24
(actually its 21 now, we lost 3 fairly early in. It's sad, but its something you unfortunately have to expect in rearing the little guys- and I mean, not to brag but.... all things considered, our survival rate is still pretty damn impressive)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It's crazy to see how theyve changed over time. They went from walking gel capsules with goofy feet to a slappy armor-plated biker gang.
Anyway!
We finally put 'em in with each other in one big enclosure a day or two ago, and theyre doing great so far.
As is the way of Asian forest scorpions, they're big fans of clustering together in warm spots to make a big ol' babystack.
Heres a few blacklight shots of them in their new tank!
(Yes, I know scorpions find blacklight annoying. I had it on for maybe 20 seconds to locate the babies & check up on them, + snap a few pictures.)
Heres some little dudes exploring and checking out the best seat in the house.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Under that bit of wood? Yeah, theres just a pile of babies hanging out. Nobody's hurt or sick, nobody's being hostile to anyone else, its just... little dudes running around, digging wherever, sleeping, climbing, and eating whatever they can catch (which atm is, like... a stupid amount of flightless fruit flies)
So thats..... scorpion baby mode!
