I'm proud to say, my gracilis babies have left mom, who has been placed back in the adult communal tank. By hand. Very sweet momma. I've lost, as close as I can guess, three slings who came off early and went to a water cap..dont give baby scorps a water cap. They do drown, unlike spiders. At least another 5 came off the day they were born. Those were eithereaten or crushed by mom. I just fed at least 15 that are left, most likely 20-25. I fed lateralis nymphs, which everyone, including mom,took down. I can't describe how enjoyable this is becoming <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /> Have any of you ever fed 20 hungry scorp babies?!? My communal of six 3i did not prepare me for this. I'll freakin breast feed these fantastic little monsters to maturity, LOL</p></blockquote><p></p>
