One such example would be this Chihuahuanus cf. crassimanus "Ector County, TX", that was randomly gifted to me over a year ago along with several other inverts from that region. This thing has done quite well and molted twice in my care, seems to feed well on small roaches and/or prekilled items as well.
A very small species, pretty slow growing too.
Here are a couple pics of the cutie:
Next up, I caught a medium sized Paruroctonus borealis from Kepros Mountain, ID. This one is caught just to get pictures of, I feel like there aren't a lot of scorpion sightings here in ID so I want to catalog them when I find a new species I've not yet seen here.
A couple photos of the handsome scorp:
I like the darker markings on these ones, a really attractive native scorpion.
Lastly we have a female Paravaejovis confusus from Swan Falls, ID... how do I know it's female? Because she gave birth just a few days ago. 🙃 I caught this one just for photos as well, did not expect it to be a gravid female.
Here she is in all her glory:

| Babies... so many babies. |
A pretty specimens for sure, now I got a bunch of babies to get rid of though... whoops. 😆
Well now I've found three species in Idaho, the third being Hadrurus spadix (not included in this post, but I do have an immature of that species I'm looking to get rid of as well).
Anyways, I am looking to get rid of each of the above individuals, so if anyone's looking to acquire some new scorpion friends, feel free to email me at invertebratedude@gmail.com, or PM me on one of my socials. 😄
That does it for this post, thanks for reading, I'll see you all next time! 😉
