My Pandinus imperator

May 2010 - Aquired a baby Imperial Scorpion. A real tiddler at maybe 1.5 cm in length. 2nd instar says breeder. This is the first one to try raising from such a young age, wish me luck!

Feb 2011 - (s)He is still small, but a bit plumper and the white patches have now all turned to the solid shiney black Pandinus is so well known for. Looks like a proper miniature Emperor Scorpion. 

Mar 2011 - At last! Went to spray the little guy yesterday (6th March) and discovered one very dark scorpion and one very pale one. Of course the pale one was a skin, he has finally moulted! :) Pincers taking on the more robust appearance of an adult than they were before the moult.
