My first medically significant scorpion, androctonus bicolor. I used a gritty substrate cactus mix so it wouldn't get too wet, I know these guys are normally kept on sand but in my experience sand just lends itself to getting cemented on their feet if you ever mist the enclosure. I'll see if he likes the grittier mix, and if not I'll incorporate more sand.

The only verified male A. australis in my breeding collection but hopefully soon will be a father 🤞🏼 He has always had a section of his rear legs missing since his final molt 🤔 🦂 🕷 🕸 #scorpion #scorpions #scorpionbreeding #androctonus #androctonusaustralis #fattail #fattailscorpion #growth #arachnid #arachnology #entomology #chelicerata #cheliceratastudy #arthropod #venomous #

Finally finally! i've been waiting this brood for so long and actually not sure if she was gravid or not. but yeah. it was not fail.

the mom ate at least 3/4 of the youngs (it happen sometimes without any particular reason) we cannot stop it. but im still happy because this is my first brood of Androctonus species. Well not the first time actually but moms always ate those poor babies.

hopefully she will be doing good until the babies come down from the back
