Congratulations buddy! I've actually had a few scorpions come in gravid then find them one morning with babies on their backs but i never got the pleasure of seeing it happen. (Same goes for tarantulas).

:cool: Well i checked on her few mins ago and it appears shes done birthing.. she looks like she was eatting something, i hope if it was a baby that maybe something was wrong with it and she disposed of it.. anyways i have counted what looks like 14 so far maybe more not sure as it looks like maybe one or so under her.. I made sure she had water and her cage was warm and humid and shes in a room with no noise and kinda dark so now il wait till tonight and check once more and then when i know all is well il go ahead and feed her a crix with its legs plucked off. All babies on deck look good and there soooo cute... It was a very rewarding experiance to watch her give birth and one im glad i didnt miss.. Lets hope this time next yr il be rewarded with more babies once again....... :D

:cool: Update, mom is doing well and got a total count of 16 babies and one had no tail and i dont think its gona make it.. we shall see.. i have given her 2 large crix so far with the legs pulled of and she slamed them like no tomarrow.. LOL!! im gona make sure shes well fed so she dont eat the babies.. saw her get a long drink out of her water dish also.. My buds scorp had babies as well yesterday, it really must be that time of the yr all scorps are a poping...hehehe!! Thanks again everyone..
PensRule, i would make sure mom is not disturbed other than you being quiet and taking peeks at her, once shes done wait few hrs and try to feed her a crix with the legs pulled off so she dont eat the babies.. I have found Emp scorps to be great mothers as mine is doing a great job... :D anyways i would wait till the babies have had there first molt and have climbed off moms back befour taking the babies out and seperating them, once they are on there own i would go with the tiniest of pinhead crix for the babies to eat..
:cool:
WoooHooo i should have pics of her and the babies by wensday...
