ToWatchMusic not me 😁
Petko ASMR
i guess a lot of people love bubble wrap like me

It's so adorable how proud he gets of them when they eat.
Gotta get more scorpions !!!
Exotics Lair pp
Pesci
HEY EXOTIC!
Gotta catch m all!
Move to Texas I used to find scorpions in my house all the time!
this dude.... this dude literally keeps deadly scorpions in his moms tupperware in his house, but gets excited about letting an emperor scorpion crawl over his hand...
anyway, dude seems super sweet and nice
Larciell i dare you to do it

@@andreloos7843 is not an emperor he said heterometrus species so asian forest scorpion much more defensive than emperor scorpion
@@dennymabillotte8573 Still fairly chill sometimes, mine likes to pose defense a lot but I’ve yet to be stung or pinched. However I don’t handle very often and am usually very careful when I do.
Me: *keeps hamsters, dogs, cats, bunnies and everything fluffy*
Also me: HMMM WHAT ABOUT A SCORPION
my thoughts exactly 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love how calm he was when the last one escaped lol
I also love how when it 'escaped' it just kind of dangled like 'I'VE MADE AN ERROR I CAN'T FIND THE FLOOR'
The tailless whip scorpion is so amazing. She’s just incredible
I've never seen such high quality footage of a tailless whip scorpion! Awesome video! I really like the big scorpion as well, such a grumpy cutie
i know right???? this is better than animal planey and discovery channel!!!
U can tell the venom is really strong just by how the roach instantly gets paralyzed after the sting
Stay safe Petko!
@Ish From what I've seen fat tail and small claws (proportion wise) = venomous. The part they use the most to capture food just ends up bigger as one reduces stress and the other causes it. Stress = sicker, hungrier, thirstier = more likely to die
You got the letter!!! We love you in Australia 🇦🇺 🕷
Aussie Aussie Aussie! Good on you Winton for showing your support :)
sweet thanks mate
Winton Night very cool
Winton Night cool lad

I love the Taylor Swift Scorpion! My favourite
Coffee Addicts why is it called the Taylor Swift scorpion??
Tailless Whip Scorpion. But it sounds like Taylor Swift Scorpion when you say it fast. #lookwhatyoumademedo
That’s what my girlfriend & I call them too lol
I heard that too 😂
That’s exactly what I did understand😄
18:01 bro, you wanna fight.
I was really nervous when the scorpion went on your hand lol
this one was not deadly!
It's sting is like a bee I mean this one only
YaBrodieX I own several scorpions, that one was a black emperor. They are completely harmless unless you're allergic to them. For the most part they're not aggressive esp compared to the red claw emperor scorpions.
Singing Feather this is not an emperor, look at his pincer's texture its an heterometrus
Vardal That's an Asian Forest Scorpion, isn't it?
Little fly attacks Petko : I dont need that in my life" 😂😂
this man is brave as hell with the scorpion at the end, sure its pretty docile and doesnt seem to really care but i would never do that in my life
Lunar Dust then goes on to say it’s harmless 😯
Pussy lol
Emperor scorpion isn't really dangerous bcs they rely on brute force to take down their prey and opponents
8:32 , has the cutest eyes ever haha ❤️
That Mambo No. 5 reference tho 😂
ZeroFawkesGiven Right🤣🤣😂😂
I waited the whole video for that 😂
it's almost like the tailless was coming over to say "thank you for the tasty foods"
Looked to me like he was coming over to say, I want to eat you human! You think this is amusing? Keeping me locked in here and feeding me tiny roaches? I'm gonna get out of this enclosure someday and when I do, you better sleep with one eye open.
Also, yeah thanks for the roach I guess.
„What‘s the plan, buddy?“😂
I bought my first scorpion today, an Asian Forest Scorpion. I love her. She's in a 10 gallon tank with numerous pothos, a big hideaway ornament, shallow water dish, and 3 solid inches of 70/30 reptisoil/coco fiber for her to burrow.
20:46
Petko: A little bit of...
Little guy: ♪Monica in my life♪
I was dying XD
I'm super interested in getting a scorpion, and although I have no experience caring or handling them, this video is seriously inspiring me to get one
Loved this feeding.. Makes me nostalgic to when I used to have Ts and scorps...
He was like “I’m out this joint. ‘Scuse meh.... “ 🦂
My Asian forest always hisses at me, and is aggressive like that. I've had him for 3 years and he is still mean and every time I open the enclosure her puts up a defensive posture. 😂😂
Sienna Espinosa wait a minute.... Forest hisses at you.... How would forest hisses,, it might be you heard wrong.... Lol 😂 😂 😂
Bigstar Sara Asian forest scorpion
Sienna Espinosa ya I know,,,, I just kidding up there..... I have heard that Asian forest scorpion are kind of aggressive
Bigstar Sara 😒haha
Lol why so rude
The big black scorpion looks like a emperor scorpion. They don't like to be alone. I got a mate for mine. The only problem is they are picky. He ate the first mate I got him and he got along with the second and are now best friends. They both posture up when I go to handle them but it's just a act. They look like they are ton a do something and never do.
He ate the first one lol
Where did you get your emperors from as in the uk they are almost impossible to get hold of.
It's an Asian forest.. and having them in a community can be risky (pretty sure if I tried putting my female with others she would eat at least one other scorpion)
Dr Doolittle Fish hobbyist I used to have 2 here in UK but this was in the 90s, very placid and beautiful scorpions although when small they were a little fast and quick to sting lol
“So what’s the plan buddy? Bore me to death?” 😂 I speak to mine in the same way!
When you fed the whip at the end, I am glad you dropped the roach. That was beyond awesome to watch that take down. Ppl can benefit from them, they eat things that you don't want in your home or around it.
I love the last scorpion. The emperor. As mentioned on of the few people tend to hold. I personally love to hold mine just like with a tarantula long as ur calm and careful.
20:32
Den: That's enough!
Heterometrus: NO! I'm trusted you!
I recommend you to keep the enclosure of the Vinegaroon moist. If you do that he will come out definitly. They hide when it's dry.
Another great, informative video. Thank you for always taking time to explain routines and feedings, your love for these creatures is clear and they are a magnificent collection. The expression on your face when you pet your scorpion at 19:22 is priceless....
Nicki Minaj : “Somebody point me to the best ass eater!”
Scorpion : 16:46
😂😂😂
Me:*loves scorps and spides*
Dark den:*exsists*
Me: ahh finaly a chanel about spiders and scorps now to sub em
Handling a scorpion so calmly. Most suspenseful video Ive seen so far on TH-cam!
I can't believe how calm you are. In my little country an author wrote a book where a native's child was stung by a scorpion and died. I encounter alot of them when I go in the forest but never would I handle them like you did.
the last scorpion was like fuck you im going for a walk XD
That last scorpion is different. Its like a spider half scorpion and crab
In case you didn't know it is usually the smaller 🦂 that pack's more venomous stinger than the larger 1nes!
Reminds me of chili peppers. The smaller = the spicier!
I wonder if the scorpions think “ooo rain” when you are watering there enclosures. Love the videos keep up the good work, I had a massive fear of spiders but you helped my fear and help me learn that they are actually beautiful animals ❤️
Thank you for sharing your scorpions. They and you are a lot of fun to watch.
18:36 "don't run"
im emperor, i do what i want
I think its an asian forest scorpion, looks similar to the emperor tho
I love your feeding videos. I hand my Asian Forest food directly by placing the cricket in it’s claw. I know it may be cheating but I keep it relatively wet in there and those darn crickets lay eggs like no one’s business. I even found some pinheads in there but none survived long
tarantula kat Pin head as in mushrooms?
Huh? I didn't know that crickets lay eggs everywhere. Ew! I bet that is so frustrating! Also, what are pinheads?
Pinheads are young, baby crickets ;)
You have great subscribers, indeed, but you're also a FRECKING great youtuber, the way you treat and respect the animals is way better then most I see, I've been looking your channel for some time and you're even inspiring me to get a spider, keep up the good work!
Very cool vid! It’s so good to see the genuine love you have for these creatures. Many thanks for sharing the footage and your knowledge!
A little bit of Monica in my life 😂😂 love you petko
I was about to sing about Monika in my life and then you put t- This channel is great
SemDening Productions i almost started also
I used to find with my scorps, that if they weren't good eaters. I would literally drop the cricket on the scorps claws. 99% of the time that would trigger the natural predatory feeding reflex . As you know It's the hairs on the claws that alert them to prey, and really does seem to make them react instantly. Excellent vid as always mate
That glowing scorpion was going ultra instinct on that roach
Amazing video all the scorpions are awesome that was cool letting it go on your hand lol 🦂🦂
This is the human scale version of "The Collector" from marvel
Petco for my hadrous I used a mix of paver base half and half with play sand. Paver mix is a mix you should be able to buy at any hardware store it’s what they use before they put down a paver walkway and it has some gravel and some fine sand ect. Mix the 2 50/50 and wet it down. Pack it into the enclosure like you would normally and leave it to dry. It holds a great burrow and looks very natural
Tyvm for illuminating the uv scorpion. I missed the name because I was intrigued by the feeding and the lighting
A little bit of Monica in my life, nice ;D
16:32 holy crap that was creepy💀 so fast😬
I started watching this channel bcs i wanted to get rid of my fear and now i think all of your animals are adorable and i cant resist making the “awww” out loud😂❤️
The close ups are so nice to watch!
Roach:I am too young to die!!
*Roach ran to scorpion and accidentally commits suicide.*
You didn't feed the big one :'-(
Probably fed it later :)
When the scorpion got out of the cage he was so chill about it I was literally shitting my pants
The biggest scorpion you have looks like the most sweetest scorpion since he went over your hand like it was nothing at all...
Imagine he gets a 10/10 girlfriend and she suffers from crippling arachnophobia
@Jack K Scorpions are arachnids
They might be growing slowly because their enclosure is small.
That's not how it works
They're not fish dude
I don't know why but scorpions give more of a badass feeling than a creepy feeling, which other arachnids don't seem to evoke.
Just came across your channel and you are sooo calming to watch! Fantastic video
18:35 FREEEDOOOOMMM BITCHES
Get over here !
..
Have a massive fear or spiders and scorpions but there is something about your content that puts my fear at ease and your general love for your animals is amazing, great content
I have to say that I only recently came across your channel, but I really enjoy watching. The things you show and tell are very informative and it's always interesting to have a look at those beautiful creatures. It also rekindled my interest in terraria, haven't had those for years... As a sidenote, it's rather amazing how a whip scorpion looks like a hybrid between a regular scorpion and a praying mantis!
Taylor swift scorpion :D (or was it tailless whip?)
Shaderex haha its tailless whip. He should call his Taylor swift.
Shaderex lol
Aragog the Tarantula NO
Literally thought he had a scorpion named Taylor Swift the first time he said it up to the time I saw what he meant
Yes
Can't resist but to pop the bubble wrap. -*Totally Relateable😊
The scorpion has personality, that's not a bad thing, i personally think it's cool when you can see more than just "instincts" in an animal. Good video, thx. ;)
Such a simple and interesting channel. You have wonderful animals
Scary but cute ❤
Your scorpions are fabulous ive got 1 asian forest and she's mean
So ive been wanting to get my first tarantula for sometime now, thinking a smithi (mexican red knee) and i got onto your page and i love all your comments and your voice overs of the tarantulas and the "scorpion what are you doing!? its in the middle!" was hilarious you have made me laugh so much, keep it up and i will be sure to stay tuned :D
The glow in the dark one is so cool!
Oooooh weeee... 21m of playtime :)
Scolo Pron 2:09
The first scorpion looks like a noob mortal kombat Player using skorpion
Nice video and i can imagine how thrilling part of handling scorpion on hands...
Oh I was holding my breath when the scorpion was crawling on you
ive got a mortal kombat scorpion
😂
Lol
Sweet I just got my Heterometrus Longimanus a girl friend so I hope to have some baby before to long love the video keep up the awesome work.
superchickin 1 I was totally thinking the same thing. Couldn't figure out why he named a tailless whip scorpion Taylor Swift...
i just found this channel and i love it dude, keep it up
Yaaaay scorpion updates!
Would it not be better to collect the mail and do one big video for it all? I'd think that was the best solution to satisfy both sides of the coin. Maybe every fortnightly or monthly maybe?
Not a bad idea but I'm sure the fans writing like the current situation. I know when Petko responded to one of my comments I felt a bit excited. Strange because I never have been stoked about celebrities.
shaun gilholme yah it seems he likes to keep them private. Which i totally understand
The only other decent solution is actual time stamps. I'm not saying which side i fall on as it's not very relevant to the solution. I can certainly understand both sides and yours, john. Personal preference sure is a tricky beast to tackle!
What do you mean by keeping them private? Maybe i'm missing something here@the los
shaun gilholme just like sometimes I'm sure fans write stuff going on in their own lives that he helped them get over. Personal things meant for dark den and not us, ya know?
What type of roach do you use to feed?
lateralis
JUSTIN

I saw something that would have to be a Heterometrus sp. on a family holiday in Sri Lanka. It was under a plant leaf in the botanical gardens in Kandy. Over 25 years later I am pretty sure it is still the biggest scorpion I have seen wild or captive!
That was so relaxing to watch. Ty
Ahhh you missed the chance to make him UV glow on your hand
Hé should get trapjaw ants
and green weaver ants :D
It's really cute when you 'hand' the scorpions their food and they run off with it like they are showing off to their friends. And I think the desert scorpions conspiring to troll you is ace #teamscorpiontrolls
Svaka čast, samo tako nastavi, obožavam tvoje klipove! :))
4:30 to skip fan letters...
17:03 women can't be understood no matter the species xD
Having kept deadly scorpions may I advise a larger enclosure & a small water dish. The lid off a beer bottle will work well. I'd also advise larger enclosures AND water dishes for your forest dwelling species. Desert species get may get most [but not all] of their moisture from prey but forest species will actively drink from small basins and require higher humidity especially for molting. In fact if the humidity is too low when molting their exoskeleton can dry up & they will die of exhaustion trying to wriggle out of it. Also consider a higher food intake. This may aid growth.
Just wow, your scorpions are so cool! Great video, greatings from Italy
Its 4 oclock in the morning with work in an hour and im too addicted to the videos to stop
Very cool update. Love the scorpions :-) The sound your Heterometrus is making is called stridulation and some of the other species you have are also know to be able to do it.
Cool footage of that big scorpion. 📷 It's a fascinating creature.
That last scorpio is such a majestic Scorpio. 😍😍😍
