I’ve never kept scorpions before, mostly because I’ve always read that they need external heat. As I get deeper into the invert keeping hobby I wonder if this is actually true or not. I remember when it was “known” that tarantulas needed external heat. Now we know this isn’t true. As far as I know there are no tarantulas or true spiders kept in captivity that need a heat source. Could this not be the case with scorpions? We keep T’s from the same regions many commonly available scorpions come from and yet only provide heat to the scorps. I understand they are completely different animals but I still wonder if we are making it more difficult than need be.
Is anyone successfully keeping scorps at room temperature?
