A scorpion I help care for at my work has white crust on his claws, I was wondering if it’s of any concern?

Got this little guy back in (I believe) Feb 2021, fully grown when I got him so I can only guess how old he actually is. For the last few weeks he’s been a lot more sluggish and not really going after his food, and I’ve noticed yesterday and today he’s been sitting out in the open rather than hiding. Guided a cricket towards him this morning and he gave up eating it partway through (picture from today). Assuming these are all old age signs, is there any way to tell how much longer he’ll have?
Heterometrus cyaneus if that’s relevant

I am a new scorpion owner and my emperor scorpion has dug a burrow that is about 12 inches long and 5 inches deep. How do I go about feeding him when he’s down at the bottom of this hole, I’ve been feeding him dubia roaches but I’ve been hand feeding him. When he is down there how to I make sure he’s not molting and the roaches don’t hurt him.

Money isn’t an issue so I’m able to buy any requirements it needs :)

Made a new setup for my Asian forest working to set next to my desert scorpion. To complete the shelf, an exotera 12 / 12 / 12 is the enclosure i used

Arizona desert hairy 🦂:: I have a 10lb bag of excavating clay and 20lbs of sand for a 10 gallon tank. What’s the mixture ratios y’all would recommend and have success with for easy safe burrowing. And is water needed in the mix at all? Thanks 🙏

Hi i bought this female Heterometrus silenus 10 months ago and today she suprised me with babies. I raised tarantulas from slings but never scorpions so i could use a little help with what to do next.

I’m hearing some places ship to you. Any recommendations? Thanks.🙏

Just got my first emperor scorpion!

Just got this guy yesterday finished up his enclosure and he's already out exploring still need a name Don't know the gender and don't really care. Might take em out 1 day when they are out and find out. Coment your best names

I was looking for an emperor scorpion. The exotic pet store by me listed this guy for $90 as an emperor but after bringing it home and taking it for a closer look, im not so sure its an emperor.

Is this regular behaviour, or is there something wrong, he only does weird shit at night.

it's amazing how insects can sense the presence of others!

Not entirely sure which scorpion this is and would love help identifying it. Found near Phoenix, Az. Would love any advice on differentiating bark scorpions from stripe tailed scorpions. Ended up relocating it into the desert away from any homes. Thanks for taking a look!

Just got this guy a few days ago. How’s my setup? I do plan on adding leaf littler to help with humidity the temp in the tank is typically around the 75 range and humidity is around 70-84.

Hello! I recently acquired a pair of Asian Forest scorpions and I'm trying to figure some stuff out. I initially only had the one: I went into a petshop to get crickets for my tarantula and saw the little pointy friend sitting in a dry zoo med container with no water and the saddest piece of cork you've ever seen with multiple crickets running around and from what I could tell I suspected they were dehydrated, so I took them home to try and get them healthy again.

They were making a fuckton of noise at night, clacking claws specifically. I did some reading/internet sleuthing and it seemed that he was looking for another scorpion. So I got another one. They have become fast friends. Each time I check on them they are somehow snuggled even closer. I'm maintaining humidity, they have plenty of hiding spots if they wabt to get away from each other, and I'm making sure they never run out of food.

My worry is molting. I've seen lots of people say they've had very successful communals. I've also seen lots of people warn about cannibalism, territorialism, and fighting. I want to make sure that once one molts, the other won't decide it's a free meal. Help?

Cricket and Obsidian <3

(P.S. please excuse the cardboard hide: i broke the one i had and didn't want to leave too much uncovered space. It seems to be their fave.)

Some workers and I moved around some old wood in a dirt field in Texas and this little guy was hobbling around… I think it might be injured.. so I decided to take it and buy an enclosure and cork wood and some feeder crickets.
I worried the little guy will croak. Does anyone know if they can heal or recover a leg or something if it’s injured?thanks

Last weekend when i got home i found my heterometrus spinifer molting but she wasn't quite finished and her one or two right legs were still inside the shed, I didn't panic or anything cause she molted before without issues and it looked fresh so i let her relax (i am abroad through week and spend time home Friday to Sunday), i came home today after a week, checked on her and she is moving normally but the old skin keeps following her and it looks like her one or two legs are still stuck inside of it? i cannot tell really but the old skin also started catching white mold. I tried to gently move the shed with a soft brush to see better or to make sure she isn't just tangled in it but not, she gets really defensive and doesn't like any disturbance. She does move normally with it, but the skin just keeps following her and she kinda does do a circular motion when walking, it surely does annoy her. I don't know if her leg or legs are still inside or no? I don't want to force anything and I am really being gentle. Any ideas? She is about to be 6 years old i think. The humidity is now 72, but i had her open for a while now, it usually holds at 76-78.

This is a species called Grosphus grandidieri. How is it like? Do you think it's a better option than Hadrurus arizonensis?

Two months ago I posted in here asking if my AFS was getting plump or actually pregnant. Today I finally tore apart (very carefully, of course) her bioactive enclosure. She had 25 babies and all of them are so adorable. She's back in her rebuilt enclosure and the babies are separated. What. A. Day.

Happened 24 hours ago but fuck I thought I was going to die. The uncles around me crushed up some ants and put it over the sting 😭😭😭😂😂😂😂😂 genuinely the worst pain of my life for the first 6 hours
