Hi,
very nice. And yes, to know the duration of gestation would be interesting. Regards Alex

I had exactly the same problem, one of my females died after mating as well  , which is pretty odd as you virtually never get deaths of young adults.I think I keep my scorpions hotter then you, which might explain the quicker development...can you see the embryos? They were clearly visible through the plural membrane of my female for the past few weeks. |

Hmm well I checked on her tonight and there's still only 3, either she's eaten the others or somethings gone wrong with the birth...I'll be very annoyed if she dies.

What funky looking scorplings, they kinda look like 2nd instars (pronounced colouration) but I don't know much about scorps
