Sir you are a National Treasure! You videos are informative and entertaining. They will go on educating folks for many years . From my heart i thank you brother!
Eek, but I know you love em Dave and T. You must be tickled pink, you look like a child in a lolly store, they are fascinating to watch and we could see the green shade too. 😂💝🕷🦂
That made a pleasant change - nice to hear the interaction with Camera Lady as well, asking some great questions. 👍 I’ve only a couple of tiny issues with scorpions: The sting, the claws, they don’t understand English - but they *do* look amazing under UV light, and there’s science behind that, it’s not just a quirky party trick. Could never own one though, but great footage and congrats on your new beasties - good luck with pairing; now *that* will be a fascinating video to watch. 👍❤️💙😉
We need a history of the Beaties Room Dave! The early videos when the room wasn't floor to ceiling beasties up to now when it's filled with cool critters. Love you guys!
Not my favorite but very impressive beasts . Really nice to have camera lady's input and asking some questions that we like to hear .hopefully she will do more of the chat sometime . thank you
I'm a Brit living in the CA desert, i started watching your channel to help with my fear of spiders. Yesterday, i was able to relocate a Tarantula in my front yard to a safer location. Helped immensely by watching you gently work with your beasties. Thank you!
I got a gravid Asian forest scorpion (with a little haggling) when the shop I ordered a spider from contacted me asked if I could cancel or take an equivalent cost alternative. Really cool experience seeing the mom carry them around. I found scorpions way easier and less worrying than tarantulas. No bolts, not teleporting, not climbing up the side, and more likely to pinch than poke haha. She always walked around like a tank too. Ended up really enjoying caring for it, but left it in China with a friend who really liked seeing it whenever he came over.
Dave! I swear you’ve been keeping an eye on my collection because the last several videos have all been recent additions 😂 yet again another wonderful video. Thank you, Dave!
Had some both for myself and the shop I used to work in before I believe they became illegal to import. I will add they appear to drink a lot, so the water bowl is important. The sting isn't even that bad. They would rather push away with the tail when irritated than sting. You really have to work at it and get caught by accident for a sting. First time I got a very small blister like mark and a barely noticeable electric sensation up my arm. Nothing since (could have been dry stings, those). Only reason I was stung at all was I couldn't stop handling them and showing them off. And if you play with fire long enough you will get burned eventually as the saying goes.
I like how smart scorpions are. Absolute tanks. I remember Emperor scorpions being really common and cheap back in the day too. It's shocking to hear they've gone so rare, and at the same time, good to know you've started a breeding program. Keep up the good work! I do prefer how elegant tarantulas are though.
I'll be looking forward to seeing more of the scorpions and how the breeding program goes. Thanks for mixing it up a little. So for them I'll be calm be gentle and love your beasties.
I used to volunteer at a Butterfly Pavilion. They had several large tanks with Emperor Scorpions. I was amazed at how very social they were with one another. They had 4 adults in each tank and they seemed to really like being with one another. They also seemed very gentle when being handled. Not to mention how beautiful they were.
That white stuff in with the scorpion is called Perlite, I'm almost positive. I use it when I'm growing mushrooms. It also retains moisture quite beautifully and is great to lock it in. I hope your ear gets better, Dave! I hate earaches!
Very cool. I enjoyed them running up onto ur arm. It reminded me of several movies where the scorpion slips into the bed of the sleeping victim. Like they are so deadly! 😮
Thanks, Dave! Happy New Year 2024, despite what's happening all around us, let's be determined to make 2024 the best year so far! Dave, did that missing claw ever grow back?
@@daveslittlebeasties Yes, you did mention that it will probably not but that she's okay and eating well, starting to attempt to catch her own live bait. But since it was a year ago I knew I could get an update in-case it did grow back, I was curious. She obviously lost it with some difficulties in an early shedding.
Another informative and captivating video from the Beastie Room... I don't know how I feel about scorpions, we have lots of very small and almost translucent ones here in Coastal Australia though I'm told they have an impressive sting on them, they have extremely small pincers so I guess venom is nessesary, we get so many coming into the house that we have shag pile carpet mats in front of the doors as they get stuck in it and can't get out until I safely collect them up and take them back down to the scrub at the foreshore... Anyway, just thought I'd share my experience with Scorpions with 'YALL'. Thanks Mrs Dave's Camera Lady, and as always... Mr Dave and his little beasties.👍😃👍
dave, I love this channel, you and your wife do such a good job filming these animals and giving knowledge. Very much appreciated! sidenote: Mrs. Beastie, you get some great shots.
Beautiful🥰🥰🥰 Here in Italy it is difficult to find them lately, if they are found they cost 250.00 euros each, until 10 years ago they were at 30.00 euros. Congratulations😉
Ohhh, "loamy"... Dave breaking out the geology terms 😂. I love the soil mix. I use Cypress mulch, fir bark, orchid bark, etc, in my soil mixes as an aggregate for burrowing tarantulas like Ephebopus. They'll web to the larger pieces and reinforce their burrows. It also allows a bit of airflow in the soil, so it doesn't get stagnant down in the burrow. One down side: the bark is prone to molding slightly, especially right after setting up the enclosure. It's not that yellow potting mold (common with coco fiber), it's a white-grey fluff mold. I'd add a few springtails, and they'll usually eat it right up. If not, the mold will use up all the nutrients on the surface in about 2 weeks, and it'll just die off.
18 yrs ago I was a 16 year old kid who walked into a pet shop and thought it would be cool to have a pair of scorpions. Good thing they are forgiving because I was clueless and eventually gave them back to the pet store. 😂 I've matured a lot since then and now I always do my research before even considering getting a pet.
Aw brilliant again 👏 class vídeo Dave ma pal Well in 📷 lady🤷🏼♀️ with the questions - you keep him right hen 😁👏 .... My heart was gon when the tail grabs were happening 😳😬
I remember back 2007 only paid £12 each emperor scorpions each. I had two makes and two females had them 4 foot long terrarium all kept lot hiding spaces both females pregnant and give birth few days apart . Great experience. Bought two Pandinus viatoris Cave scorpions another great African species I kept before hope breed them. Got some sake on mantis den 👍
Somehow I just have a soft spot for critters with big ole claws. And these are pretty big! Good luck breeding em Dave, I think I can see a lovely relationship between them already 😄❤
Watch out with that spider shop sub I got their arid mix and burrowing mix for my t's and every viv I used them in grew mushrooms of the magic variety 😳 I just pulled the mushrooms but still not ideal in a sling viv should be fine with bark flakes but still watch out just incase. Beautiful scorpions and great upload as always Dave Camera Lady 😊
Now I like those creatures. I could look after one of those. By the way, everything is shockingly expensive today. I used to fetch my old Mum a large piece of beef and get change from a ten bob note. A bag of crisps cost that now.
Dave just got to watch this video and enjoyed it very much so, i think Scorpions 🦂 are stunning, you could see the green on them, i hope you have a very successful breeding project, anyway Dave another super job by yourself and camera 📷 lady Dave.
Dave I'm amazed that you not only keep tarantulas but scorpions as well. Last Saturday I bought a Congo emperor scorpion. Th only difference is that the regular emperor and Congo is the tailson. One have a black tailson and the other have a red tailson. I hope you do a breeding video on them. Mine is a male but it's still small. I named my Congo emperor Draco because I love dragons.
Emperor Scorpions are cool. Remember when there were loads of these about. Like the Chilean Rosea people just stopped buying them, and they became harder to come by. I can't wait to see more of these impressive scorpions in the hobby... Thanks for showing these Dave.
I believe they were added to CITES and very few people bothered to try breeding them because of their availability. Really sad that barely any attempt was made with this easy-to-breed species to establish it before it was too late
I had an emperor scorpion some years back. I never used to pick it up like that i always scooped it up from behind. Mine used to just lay itself totally flat on my hand with the tail laid out up my wrist. I think it enjoyed soaking up the body heat.
@@daveslittlebeasties I really mean it! I love how collective and calm you are in your teaching, and how you professionally walk us threw, what we are seeing, and what the Spider's are experiencing, and your hands seem very steady! I'm raising my first T, and I'm 54. Brazilian black. Your my Mentor in the Spider World! I hope, that if I ever have any questions about my T, that maybe you could help me time to time? O Boy do I have a few questions. 😆 God bless you Brother!
Thank you for this beautiful video I enjoy all the videos you make how you manage and handle every single one with that Beastie touch Your a Courteous and honest and brave person who takes pride in everything you do keep doing what your doing
Shorty that cracked me up .Camera lady did a great Job and the green showed up lovely. £5 that must have been when cigarettes where 50p a packet and I was sent down to the shop with a note ...Yes im sorry to say Ithat age too .but we had the best time . A friend of mine had a scorpion and a red knee chilli ( I think 🤔?!! Thats what it was called ) He was the talk of the estate , and everyone thought he was the local wildlife injured animal expert. Because he'd keep a Scorpio and tarantula .Them were the days lol 😆 🥰🥰
I bought a female Emperor many years ago as my first 'exotic' pet, a few months later I woke up to a bunch of small little while slimy scorpions babies that were halfway eaten.
Sorry to hear about your ear David.. I am sure camera lady will take good care of you though.. Love those emperors.. I remember back in the 50's and 60's they used to be in every pet store.. Always wanted one but even then I realized I was an out door type and didn't really like to stay indoors.. Missed out on somethings being like that but then I did get to see some mazing places and do some real cool things.. In my eyes anyway.. Hope your felling better.. Thanks for the share.. Carry on!
BEAUTIFUL arachnids Dave! I remember these guys being, like you said, a dime a dozen. There was a time here in the states that pet stores couldn't get rid of them they were so prevalent. I'm glad to see these gorgeous specimens specifically have found a great home. I'm curious to know more about why the claw was lost in the molt. Do you think it was a genetic deficiency, or maybe something that happened during the molt to physically damage the joint? You gotta have some thoughts, and I would love a short little segment where you talked more about it with the application of your knowledge to the subject.
I'm sorry, Dave, I just had to hit that like button even before getting past the thumbnail. And I'm betting I won't rescind it. Looking forward to it. Cheers from rainy Vienna, Scott edit: was not disappointed. Thanks for another great video, and for furthering the breeding of these magnificent beasts.

Dave have you ever seen a fully grown Heterometrus swammerdami , these are tiny when when compared to it🧐🧐🧐
Great vid and a smashin change to see the scorpions in the spot light ... cant wait for updates on these guys .

Amazing species....I had a lovely female in my teens, I could handle her with no problem, I would even hand feed her. Thinking of getting one again!
The sexing was very interesting. Amazing video as always Dave
Thanks as always!

Interesting and unique
Good work on the enclosures Dave. Should be spot on for breeding when she’s acclimated.
That's a nice green sheen on the scorpion. They also look more like lobsters than spiders, haha. Love what you're doing.
thank you 🙏
Very cool. I don't know how you are going to keep up with everything. Looking forward to the room tour. Peace.
You can see the green you were talking about they are very nice looking. Can't wait for some babies 😊👍
Fingers crossed!
