I have had a hatch of baby spinigerus. The mother has abandoned the hatchlings and I removed them to avoid them being eaten by the male. With hindsight I wish I had moved the gravid female, but did not spot she was close.
I have the hatchlings in a small pot. A couple look like miniature scorpions, the rest look like a solid mass of bodies stuck together.
Does anyone know if they can develope on their own without the mothers care.
I know that they normally crawl onto the mothers back. Does she free each one as they hatch and place them there?
Regards Geoff
