About the scorpions :
Marbled Scorpions – Lychas marmoreus (Buthidae) makes excellent low maintenance pets. These little scorpions from South Australia like to hide under bark and roam at night looking for prey. We like to feed them roaches and very small crickets. The males are more active than the females, and are a great choice for a first pet. They can be housed in groups and do not need to burrow, so an enclosure with coco-peat/sand mix will suffice.
Sold as unsexed sub-adults/adults that can reach an adult length (including tail) from 25-30mm.
PROS:
- Social scorpion, so can be kept together in large groups (they do not care much for social distancing lol)
- Very hardy and easy to keep, so makes an excellent pet for beginners
- Non aggressive – in fact their favourite trick is to “play dead” – often as long as 30 minutes!
CONS:
- Mildly venomous
- Quite small and nocturnally active, so they hide under bark in the day

Gorgeous Scorpions, all arrived very well packaged and everything was labeled clearly. I was very lucky and received 3. I love learning about their unique behaviors. Very easy care and the beginner kit came with everything I would need and more. Good price for a great kit. The unboxing video was also very helpful. Thank you.
