I saw those on Fear Factor one time. They called them "Cave Dwelling Spiders" or something like that.

I would love to own a couple of those scorps.

That is just a bunch of BS on the tube that we can do without.

Wow, not a bad price even w/ shipping. Gotta start the research.

Thanks!

P.S. Fear Factor does suck.

Hmm... Just did a couple of searches and I couldn't find anything on their care... Could you possibly give me the rundown? It would be much appreciated.

Reptiteen, they're not scorpions. It is just a term to describe their appearance. Just like goliath bird eaters don't eat only birds, in fact, they rarely eat them.

I have had one for two years now. In that time it has only molted three times. I was just lucky enough to find a new one last night. It still seems to be getting bigger. I have no idea on there life span but so far so good! TB

I have heard they live 4-7 years. That is just what I have heard. I haven't had this one very long at all so I can't say from actual experience.
