Message: <blockquote data-quote="Sabeth" data-source="post: 17290" data-attributes="member: 545">I used to live in Alabama, there were scorpions everywhere and I enjoyed keeping them. One of them surprised me by having babies the day after capture. Unfortunately, I didn't know what crickets were capable of and all of the baby scorpions were lost to those evil insects. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite3" alt=":(" title="Frown    :(" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":(" /> But on the whole my scorpion-keeping adventures were pretty successful. Eventually I released them. I haven't seen a wild scorpion since we left AL, or I would definitely still keep them. Night looks lovely! <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
