Caring for the babys and seeing how fast they grow was fun. And they are so cute. There´s nothing scary about an 2cm scorpion. Only drawback was knowing i couldn´t keep them all to my self. My appartment just wasn´t big enough for all the terrariums. Feeding and handling 24 little scorpions every day was challenging but rewarding.
At the beginning they were just little white maggots on their mothers back.
Then they grew to little white scorpions. This transformation took only 2 weeks.

All my babys were handled every day so they would get used to it. It´s easyer to sell a scorpion you can hadle. We had a lot of visitors who wanted to handle babys so they would get rid of their fear of bugs.
After the rapid few first weeks growing slows down and it takes years for a scorpion to grow to full size.

All other babys were sold and hopefully are growin steadily. The problem with selling something you have raised from beginning is, you never know how well the new owner is taking care of them. You can only hope.
