But a scorp thread
I have two Heterometrus longimanus. Also known as giant forest scorpions. They are harmless enough but quite big, about 13 cm long and are fairly active.
here is one offering a hug

by the pool

and posing for the camera

Anyway after months of speculation, rumours and gossip I can confirm we have babies!!!!!!!!!
Not the clearest of photos but mother is underground at the moment and I won't disturb her.

I'm not sure how many scorplings there are but I'm guessing 10 to 15.

and a photo under UV light.

Scorplings don't have a full exoskeleton at this stage so do not reflect the same way adults too. After two moults they will have a normal outer exoskeleton and will wonder away from their mothers back.
This is quite a docile species so they should be ok together for a little while too.
