Anonymous - 2012-01-20 If you have a pregnant emperor scorpion in a tank and you put a male in there with her will she kill the male scorp? I know they kill the male after mateing but if she's already pregnant will she ?

Charlie Roche - 2011-12-21 Sounds like the fella is going into his first molt. Age is right and that is what it sounds like. They become very lethargic and stop eating.
Charlie Roche - 2011-12-21 I am sorry your little guy passed. It is hard but you don't know for sure what happened and some things are just hard to know.
lizmarie colbert - 2011-12-21 Yea your %100 percent right, but I guess I didn't have the temeture just right for him and he couldn't molt becuse of me not knowing what I'm doing now I found him upside side down died...wow I think I'vee cried like 2 hours but well learn for next time!

I have 18 black emperor scorplings that need homes ASAP. They were born in April 2010. I bought the "mom" from a breeder in Cleveland and it turned out she was pregnant :/
They are all in a 55 gallon aquarium right now. I'd like to give away the whole thing but I'm willing to give them away individually.

Richard Carroll - 2011-10-15 I'm very interested in buying a scorpion from you. I do want just one as I am a beginner. If you still have some left please contact me by my e-mail. I also have some questions about their habitat. I've heard many different things, but would like to hear it from someone who actually has experience. I know I keep seeing them in sand at pet stores and am now reading that is wrong for the emperor. Even if you have none left I'd still like to talk about habitats and if you might put me in touch with a breeder. What got my attention with you is the word "breeder". I want one from a breeder and NOT from the wild. I have no interest in people destroying colonies just to sale. I was looking for a female, but you saying yours was preggy when you got her kinda spooked me cause I have only a 15 gallon tank at the moment. Please contact me if you can help me out or get me in the right direction. Thanks for your time, Richard

dustin - 2011-09-05 Ok I bought an emperor scorpion and she had babies bout 2 weeks after I bought her. I just want to know how to keep the humidity at a normal level. I can't seem to get to stay at a high level. I use the shreaded coconut stuff. Least that's what they told me to use at the pet store. The humidity stays bout 40% to 65 70% bout and hr after I mist the cage. I also have a small heatin pad under one side of the tank. Is there anything else or anything different I need to do? The babies are bout to come into their first molt and I don't want any of them to die much less her so if theres anything I can do different please let me know please asap. Thanks!!! Dustin'

brandi horr - 2010-10-10 We recently had a scorpion but one morning I came out and she was dead. She had drowned herself in her water dish! I'm only assuming she drowned herself due to that's where I found her lifeless body. Any idea how this happened? We had sprayed her cage everyday, fed her every 3-4 days. More if she still seemed hungry. Cleaned her tank every few days.

Jesse - 2011-03-18 I also have an emperor scorpion. I was told if you put a wet sponge in the bowl they will get the water from that. With no water just the wet sponge. Maybe that's the difference. Maybe I get over my fear of holding it.
patrick86 - 2011-03-30 I use "gut load" cricket water. It's kind of like tiny pieces of what looks like gel but it's water packed with vitamins. Scorpions drink it and can't drown in it.
phil - 2009-11-12 I've been noticing my scorpion getting bigger around the mid section but thought nothing of it. It is alone in its cage and has been for up to a year, then one day outta the blue I find it with about 5 little white babies on its back, and about 5 dead in the cage. I guess they don't need a mate to spawn?

Rob - 2010-03-11 No, they do need a mate to spawn, but depending on the cage conditions and humidity and temperature it can take longer for the female scorpion to give birth. The female scorpion can remain pregnant for a year or longer if not properly kept this is usually uncommon.
joe simth - 2010-05-13 Well that stinks too bad.
tristan - 2010-09-12 Scorpions can stay pregnant up to 12 months.
AJ Fisher - 2010-12-16 Before Emperor scorpions are sold, they are usually housed in large bins. Males are not separated from females. Thus, whenever you buy a female Emperor, chances are, she is already pregnant.
nathan boddy - 2011-03-30 How old is it as she may have been pregnant already as they can carry scorplings for 9-18 months
The Black Emperor Scorpion is the ideal starter pet for a scorpion enthusiast!
If you have a pregnant emperor scorpion in a tank and you put a male in there with her will she kill the male scorp? I know they kill the male after mateing but if she's already pregnant will she ?
These animals are loners. Females will live with and care for their young, but an adult is a different matter. They should be kept separately.

Sounds like the fella is going into his first molt. Age is right and that is what it sounds like. They become very lethargic and stop eating.
I am sorry your little guy passed. It is hard but you don't know for sure what happened and some things are just hard to know.
Yea your %100 percent right, but I guess I didn't have the temeture just right for him and he couldn't molt becuse of me not knowing what I'm doing now I found him upside side down died...wow I think I'vee cried like 2 hours but well learn for next time!
Well thanks it nice to know there people out there who care about scorpions just as if they where dogs or cat but yea I'll be fine. I just can't wait till I go and get me another...cz I think they are the best animals a person could have Thanks
