He is a fat boy isn't he lol. Do you handle him? I had a Pandinus imperator that was a pussycat lol I had her out alot.

Smeringus aint the most 'user friendly' of scorpions. They are pretty aggressive and will readily sting. And on top of that they are extremely fast! I have had to chase one of them around the front room already when transferring it to it's new home.
Looked rather like a benny hill sketch with our matthew trying to help me!

And i think it will get fatter before it sheds, it is still after crickets!
