That first scorpion looks like it would do some damage. How bad would stings be from the different scorps you have? I don't know much about inverts.

Nice looking male. :) I really like these roaches, they are so calm when being held. I almost feel bad feeding them off...lol

Being stung by the parabuthus I would probably have to go to the hospital, same with the centipede if for nothing else to alleviate the pain. Being stung by the other two scorpions would most likely be about like getting stung by a hornet.

Now.. dubia roaches don't fly/climb, correct? I used to keep lobster roaches, but the darned things climbed anything (including over the Bug Stop varnish that's supposed to stop them.. lol)

Also are the dubia roaches prolific? It'd be hard to beat lobster roaches on that point..

Correct although the nymph's can climb if the wall isn't perfectly smooth. I keep mine in a non transparent plastic tub that I bought at Walmart, the tub that I bought wasn't perfectly smooth and I noticed that one of the little ones was quickly climbing up the sides. I made a post on arachnoboards about it and one of the guys told me to use smooth clear packing tape as a barrier. I purposely ran a couple up the sides to test it and sure enough it worked like a charm. I started with quite a few mature females so I was getting babies within a couple weeks, now 3 months later I have babies everywhere I look.

You might want to look into Blatta lateralis these reproduce just as fast as lobsters but can't climb smooth surfaces, just make sure the sides are perfectly smooth because they can climb much better the dubia and they are FAST!! I feed these to a couple of my arachnids because for some reason they touch the dubia's.

Lobsters climb anything.....i used to keep them.....the dubia are great little roaches ...haven't had any problems with escapes, funny to watch them try to climb out though.......the funny thing is i don't keep my bearded dragons anymore, but i still keep them around....................i guess they are pets now! :D

Very nice :), love the P. transvaalicus

Love that freshly molted baby roach :P
