I love in northern Italy. I found it while working outside

Found roaming around in the hallway.

How bad would be the sting ?

Hi friends! I just got an estimated to be 2 month old Asian Forrest. He’s about the size of a dime, so he’s tiny. (Don’t worry, I only shined the light to take the pic, would never keep a light on my adult or my baby) He came in a typical small to go container. I have a tank that’s I think a 2 gallon tank. Have plenty of substrate for it and place for him to hide, but my worry is he’s still too small. Should I keep him in this to go container until he grows up? Or just let him have at his new home and figure it out as far as catching tiny crickets? I mean, I know they run around solo in the wild by this age, but I’ve only raised an adult so far. Never a baby. Any help is appreciated.

I've been mainly feeding my boy crickets and the occasional meal worms, but I was just curious what everyone else feeds! My boy is out and about today for the first time in a couple months and I'm thinking of spoiling him with a horn worm or something, and that got me wondering. Hope everyone's pet hole is doing well!

How do I identify whether it’s a male or female?

So I've heard before that the smaller a Scorpion is the more Venoumous it is.

I can't quite remember where I picked it up but basically what was said was that you don't have to worry about getting stung by a bigger Scorpion because they tend to have less/no venom.

I've always wondered if that's true. Personally I think it's kind of BS but I don't know and would like an answer from people that have experience handling them and know what they're talking about.

Thank you in advance and please delete if this post is not acceptable for this sub ^^

I looked up on google and found out that there is only two species of scorpions in Croatia, however that one hanging out on our terrace doesn’t look like the image I can find online of the said species, any idea ?

Hey guys! I want to get either two Asian forest scorpions 3” or two Laos giant forest scorpions 2-3”. I already have 3 true emperors but I want a more aggressive species so I can learn to handle scorpions better. Possibly even breed these guys and gals… Anyways what are the differences in temperament, care etc. for these guys?

This is for a Vietnamese forest scorpion I don't have him yet so I am open to suggestions thanks for your time!

Next week I'm going on vacation, the roadtrip will be roughly 90 minutes long. What's the best way to keep my scorpion in the car? He's a Heterometrus Spinifer.

Hey everyone,

I'm new to scorpion care but have experience with lizards and other pets. I'm looking for some guidance on how to properly care for a scorpion. I want to ensure that I provide the best possible environment and care for my new pet. I would greatly appreciate any advice, tips, and recommendations from experienced scorpion keepers. Here are some specific areas I'm interested in learning more about:

1. Species Recommendation:

I've heard about Parabuthus transvaalicus. What are your thoughts on this species for a beginner like me?

2. Habitat Setup:

What type of enclosure and substrate would be suitable for a beginner scorpion keeper? Any tips on creating a comfortable and safe habitat for the scorpion?

3. Feeding and General Care:

What kind of diet is suitable for scorpions? Any specific health concerns or common issues to watch out for?

I'm open to any other advice or insights you may have. Your input will be incredibly valuable as I embark on this new scorpion-keeping journey. Thank you in advance for your help!

I have two male H. Franzwerneri currently. They are both separately housed at the moment but I need to transfer them into a larger enclosure. They are both 6i and will hopefully molt soon. I read online a while back that adult H. Franzwerneri can be kept communally provided they have enough space and are fed regularly. Does anyone have any advice on doing this or did I read a false article?

I found a buddy in my shower the other day. My 2 year old is obsessed with bugs so we'd figure to hold onto it for a couple days so she could enjoy it. We really like our buddy and would like to care for it properly long term now! I am an experienced aquariust and my wife has a biology degree, so hopefully we can handle it. I have a spare 2.5 gallon aquarium that I'm thinking of using. I know little to nothing about arachnid/ insect care so a full rundown would be helpful! Thanks in advance!

One of my buddies and I got into a disagreement I said there had to be scorpions in CO because they surround us in every state around us but he kept saying there aren't I looked on google and it did not have a clear answer, so are there?
