Four scorpions arrived
In the afternoon the four scorpions I had ordered arrived. Shipped the 7th of July from Belgium, I was expecting them last Tuesday, Wednesday at the latest, so I was a bit worried with the heat and all. But all four, Tetratrichobothrius flavicaudis, turned out to be alive.
The scorpions where packed two per plastic container. While most species are cannibalistic luckily they where ok. I prepared four plastic enclosures with some moist coconut coir and a piece of cork for hiding. The scorpions came with some dried leaves, which I also used.
The first scorpion I transferred looked to me an adult female, possible gravid. And the second one an adult male. The other two scorpions also looked like one adult male and one adult (gravid) female.
To each terrarium I added a superworm for food.
The four scorpions were wild caught from a shed in France.
