Hi Walton,

because of the fact the 6th instar specimen isn´t adult yet it´s most likely female, too. I´ve had some females maturing in 6th instar but no male in 7th. All my males reached maturity in 6th.

Do you have other specimens of P. transvaalicus which aren´t adult yet?

Fabulous specimens and shelf. And the individual set-ups are interesting. Love the functioning cage decorations.

That dripping venom is CRAZY! :eek: I'm glad my only Parabuthus sp. is a little wuss by comparison (though I don't know what he'll be like as an adult {D)

Scorpfanatic, he's still tiny. Maybe about three inches with his tail. I was about to give him a thread asking if he's fat enough to molt yet.

It was cute seeing him patrol the cage last night after the lights were out. :D
