To raise a good scorpion, you should master the following skills.
1.The introduction of nearby seeds and the introduction of seeds at a distance will cause death due to the differences in environment, temperature, humidity and other aspects, and the scorpions will not adapt to the soil and water. Beginners must go to the nearest scorpion farm to introduce seeds.
2.Avoid frightening the scorpion is afraid to move and know the nest, turning its nest at will will will make it frightened, and run around without returning to the nest, without eating or drinking, it will slowly die.
3.FoodFresh scorpions have a habit of cannibalism, but if there are enough live insects (e.g. soft-shelled turtles, mealworms, etc.)**, they rarely eat each other. Therefore, feed is a key, and the feed problem must be solved first.
4.Pregnancy care scorpions are generally born between July and August, if male and female scorpions are mixed together, female scorpions will be miscarriage because they can't find a quiet place to give birth, and the scorpions produced will also be eaten by male scorpions, and they can't reproduce enough scorpions. Therefore, pregnant scorpions must be kept alone and kept quiet when giving birth.
5.After giving birth to a pregnant scorpion in childbirth, the baby scorpion has to climb on the back of the female scorpion for 4 or 6 days before it can come down and walk around on its own, and the baby scorpion does not shed its skin on the back of the female scorpion for the first time, and it is difficult to survive for a few days. If the female scorpion and the baby scorpion stay together for more than 10 days, and there is no feed and water, the female scorpion is hungry and thirsty, and will eat the baby scorpion mercilessly.
6.After shedding the skin of the female scorpion for the first time on the back of the female scorpion, the young scorpion has a great appetite and eats a small insect a day. The young scorpions have poor predatory ability and are not as strong as insects such as mealworms that are used as feed, and cannot stab the insects to death, so the young scorpions will eat each other.
If there are not enough mealworms or other small insects, it is difficult for young scorpions to grow into adult scorpions.
7.Anti-escape measures: Scorpions cannot fly, but they are very good at crawling. Therefore, whether it is potted or boxed, or pooled or racked, it is necessary to surround it with wide-sided transparent glue or glass strips or plastic sheets, so that the scorpions can not escape.
8.Scorpions' respiratory and reproductive systems are located in the lower part of the body, so they are most afraid of water immersion. There must be no ditch under the scorpion nest.
Usually add water during the day, don't add too much water at a time, the soil is a little wet. To provide drinking water for scorpions, use a small dish to hold a few absorbent sponges or cotton, and generally change the water once every 4 to 5 days. If the scorpion is allowed to drink spoiled water for a long time, the scorpion will get sick and die.
9.Scorpions are poisonous and do not have many enemies. But the most terrifying thing is the rats, which in the summer will snatch up the feed such as mealworms or ground turtle insects. In winter, scorpions hibernate and have no defense, and are easy to be eaten by rats, which is difficult to prevent, so the rodent prevention work must be done well.

Small scorpions should be isolated from large scorpions in time when they are born, and small scorpions are small and weak, and they are easy to be trampled to death or eaten by large scorpions. Breeders also need to control the temperature at 28 32, baby scorpions are thermophilic animals, low temperature can easily lead to the death of baby scorpions. In terms of feeding, it is necessary to feed some live small insects to ensure that the baby scorpions are well nourished.
Baby scorpions should be kept in isolation from large scorpions in time when they are born. The small scorpion is born, the body is small and delicate, the body armor has not grown, and it is easy to be trampled to death or eaten by the big scorpion.
Breeders also need to control the temperature at 28 32, baby scorpions are thermophilic animals, low temperature can easily lead to the death of baby scorpions. Newborn baby scorpions should not be warmed by eye exposure, as strong sunlight can cause the baby scorpions to die.
In terms of feeding, the keeper needs to feed the baby scorpion some small insects. However, the keeper needs to control the amount of food to avoid live insects that are not eaten, and the activity in the cage can cause harm to the baby scorpions.

Scorpions are oviparous animals, each female scorpion can give birth to 20-40 cubs at a time, and there are individual female scorpions who can give birth to 72 babies. After the larvae are born from the female scorpion's reproductive body, they gather on the back of the female scorpion, and after four days, they shed their skin for the first time and become milky yellow young scorpions. Sometimes the lower mother's back moves, and when there is an alarm, it returns to the female scorpion's back.
During this period, the body color gradually changes to earthy red, after 2-3 months, you can leave the mother's body and live on your own, from the young scorpion to the adult scorpion takes about 2-3 years (this is the growth cycle of wild scorpions), and the growth cycle of artificial scorpions is 10-12 months. From July to August every year, it is the peak period for pregnant scorpions to give birth. During this period, the temperature is generally around 35, which is suitable for farrowing; If the temperature drops below 20, farrowing is stopped or delayed.
The newborn scorpion curls into a triangular pyramid, white and translucent in color, with mucus on the surface, and generally does not move. After the mucus dries slightly, the foot whiskers, foot feet, and tail segment back of the abdomen can be stretched out, and slightly moved, climb on the mother's back, and shed the skin on the mother's back for the first time. If the temperature reaches 30, the first molt can be completed after 4 to 5 days or a week.
After the first molt, the baby scorpion has a bright color, the head and chest and the dorsal armor of the anterior abdomen are dark blue, and the rest are all orange, and they are flexible, can find food and move independently, and can quickly avoid potatoes into the mother's back if they encounter enemies. After 2-3 months, the female scorpion can live separately. After six molts, the young scorpion can only mature and mate in the third year.
Newborn scorpions can skip food for about a week, and rely on the yolk consumed by the relatives to maintain for about ten days. After leaving the mother, feeding should be intensified, and corn flour or corn cob worms can be fed. In addition, special attention should be paid to the humidity in the small scorpion nest, preferably dry at the top and wet at the bottom, so that the small scorpion can be selected naturally.
