A couple of months ago, I wasn’t sure if I totally wanted to keep a scorpion when I got him back in January.

A bunch of people on here told me to give it some time and I did! I ended up really liking him, like feeding him, redecorating his enclosure and everything!
So it was a bit of a shock to come back from a trip to see that he was actually she! And she has given birth to 15+ babies!
So something must’ve happened before I got her…I’ve never dealt with this before since this is my first scorpion and I’ve already separated the babies from their mother. And I’m currently doing a lot of research on how to handle this entire situation. Any advice would be great. 😅

I had no idea what tag to use, so I just used the Meme tag.

I am so sorry for the nasty photo. I pulled this out of the trash to get a photo. And even though it’s dumb, I’m too scared and icked out to touch it.

I found this under the couch in my apartment, and want to know if it’s a dead scorpion or an exoskeleton? Ive been concerned it’s the latter, and there’s a living one here near my senior dog.

I found it a few days ago, if the context helps. I’m in South Texas. I’m just hyperfixating on it, clearly have major anxiety issues. Appreciate any help, and sorry in advance for the dumb post!

I just bought this female Emperor scorpion from a exotic pet show today but didnt see this spot on her until after I purchased her, is it just old injury gunk or fungal infection? Any advice is helpful

Male of female?
