Thanks. She had 22 of them that are now seperated and eating. They are the smallest babies I've seen in my captive bred collection

That's awesome. My U. pilosus looks like it will pop again as well. Have any of your 2i molted yet?

I knew she had to be still gravid but I didn't think she'd have just as many again. Yes 10 out of my 19 babies left have molted to 3i now. They lost some of their orange/pink coloration but they are still very cool looking Very fast growing lil guys + gals

very nice man! Glad you're getting these into the hands of hobbyists in the US! Uroplectes took too long to get here!

Thanks. I'm happy to help others get some uroplectes since indeed they've taken too long to get here in the US
When I originally started keeping scorpions about 14 years ago , I've always wanted some uroplectes species to keep. I'll be content though once I get some parabuthus mossambicensis again

UPDATE
Final count of 2i uroplectes pilosus I separated from their mommy was 16 so either some got eaten or these 1's were bigger than last brood cuz there certainly appeared to be more this time
Very happy nonetheless !!!!!
