How do I manage feeding so many baby scorpions? Well here's my process!

It depends on the individual enclosures, the spinigerus and the apacheanus both have a small piece of spaghnum moss in their enclosures. This allows me to drip water on the moss directly to give the scorpions a bit better access to it, without making the substrate super wet. And they can hide under it for a high humidity zone. For the sculpturatus, that don't have spaghnum moss because they're arboreal and wouldn't go down to it very often, I use the hair mister to provide a light mist. I also do this occasionally with the other two species.

I use crushed mealworms to feed them, you can also use springtails, pinhead crickets, cricket drumsticks, roach nymphs, or fruit flies. Baby scorpions will often feed off of mom's food scraps, and they readily take prekilled. Crushed mealworms is the most efficient way to feed this many, smaller feeders can be a bit hard to wrangle and having to catch this many would be very time consuming, and fruit flies are difficult to use as feeders in their own right because they can easily climb out of reach because scorpions can't climb smooth surfaces.

All in all, just watering them takes about an hour, feeding and watering them took about 2 and a half hours.
