Cool!!!
Nice scorpions, btw.
Could you please also PM me where to buy them? Wanted one for my b'day, but object to paying a pet store a ridiculous price, when the same ones can be bought in Victoria for about 10 buck.

ive thrown in a house spider in a container with scorpion #4,.. spider had no chance lol
it all depends on the person burky, people react differently to a sting, but Australian scorpions aren't poisonous, most p[eople say its like a bee sting..some of the African and Arabian scorpions will kill..thankfully, these guys are allowed in the country.

yeah, i have been stung before..the scorpion in picture one. It wasnt as bad a a lot of people say. At the site of sting it felt like hitting your finger with a hammer, then about 11 hours of a ''pins and needles'' feeling..then it was ok,, but ive been told to avoid getting stung by scorpion 2, 4, 12 and 13.. apparently they can pack a punch
Good advice, but you would simplify it by just saying "avoid getting stung by scorpions" fullstop
Reminds me of Douglas Adams appraisal of Australia:

Are you a man or woman , Red ants are more dangerous, and more of them to encounter than scorpians.
