I don't reccomend anyone handle scorpions....but they are really mellow.
    For feeding the babies after ma weens them, you can use a piece of fruit to attract fruit flies and let the babies handle it from there. :P

    He said that Emperors ARE mellow and generally "handleable". He just doesn't recommend it at all.
    True....I think it will be awhile before I consider seriously getting any anyway.

    Re: Unexpected litter

    yes, I generally don't recomend handling critters like that. some can be dangerous. with scorpions, you can generally tell by the fatness of the claws, fatter claws have milder venom where thinner claws have more potent venom. best ust to watch these guys!!
