    R.I.P. -- Diesel, Pandinus imperator (Pics)

    Came back from visiting some family members today so I decided to do some quick invert maintenance. I stepped into the reptile room and it smelled pretty gross, and I even said out loud, "Someone either took a nasty dump or someone died." I looked through everyone's enclosures to see if they all were well. I noticed my Emp in the same position as I left, although when I left on Sunday I did some maintenance and he was moving but still lying in the same position. When I got back I noticed he looked more limp.

    I got to doing his maintenance last but when I was misting I noticed he didn't move. So that's pretty much the story, I'm gonna miss him. He was my first scorpion and I really did enjoy having him. Never stung or pinched anyone; he was pretty good at handling but did have a moody side lol.

    Here's all the photos I've taken of him. I assume he died from old age; I acquired him as an adult at the Phoenix show last November.

    Friend handling him


    Me handling him


    Some different styles of his cage that I did (if it gives any ideas for any Emp keepers)

    Current one


    Thanks for looking, any sweet wishes or comments are much appreciated . Gonna miss you Diesel!♥

    It does suck for sure, he was pretty cool. Thank you for the kind words Andrew. I cut off the claws and tail, I'm going to hot glue em to a nice frame and put his name in there so I can hang it up in the reptile room for memories. Thought it would be a nice idea so he's still somewhat apart of my collection.

    Thank you very much for the sweet words. He definitely did help get rid of any remaining fears a couple friends/family had.

    Sorry to hear that. I lost my emp of old age last month. Got him as an adult at a show. I'm going to have to get another. Although I think I'll be going with a youngster. Mine was with me for 3 years though.
