so I have an emperor scorpion that I have owned since he was a wee little whiteling... its only about a year old. Back to the point it just recently molted and I was holding out of his cage and I was going to take a picture and he jumped out of my hand and landed on the floor and there was a greyish liquid where he landed I don't know weither he bled or whats going on he's usually really spry but he's just laying there and not really moving much.. I knows he's alive cause when I pet him he moves but it seems he's in a lot of pain.. anyway anyone know what or if theres anything I can do? I tried searching on google for answers but I haven't found any so I came to NS to see if anyone knows what I can do to help him out... please only serious remarks I know people on here joke around but I really want to know if anyone has any knowlege on emperor scorpions.. but yah right now he's just laying on a rock not directly under the lamp but he's not in his cave... I'm wating to hear suggestions

You should really take him to a vet, when animals seem hurt its often a lot worse than it seems. My poor guinea pig got cancer and died because he was kind of just chillin and then it got serious and we took him to the vet finally but there was nothing they could do... : (

Get on it, you clearly care about your pet so the least you can do is make a trip to see a vet.

Not all scorpions will kill you, and the ones you get as pets have their venom glands or something removed. Perfectly safe.

NS.com is definitely the right place to ask about emperor scorpions.

Give him a break. His animal is hurt and this is NSG. Can't hurt to ask in a forum where you can post almost anything you please. Dumbass.

Good luck with the scorpion. I really wish I could help. The best thing I can say is, vet, or try and find an animal helpline.

i would suggest going to the vet but chances are your everyday cats and dogs vet would have no idea what to say, but it couldnt hurt

ahh that's horrible. im so interested in weird bugs and insects and arachnids, i had a trantula that got eaten by my kitteh, well halfway just two legs on either side, i took it to the vet, they said that the wound would heal. he is now a happy spider that has two missing legs but walks with a gansta limp hahaha.

i hope your scorpion is okay :/ good luck.

If i knew someone with a pet spider of any kind, i would not go anywhere near that kids house. whether it had 8 legs or 6, i would not go near it.

today i saw this spider over my front door like kinda in the roof. It was big as fuck to my standards. So i grabbed the raid, went out, and sprayed it from very far away cuz i cant stand spiders. the fucker came out of the crack and was HUGE. it finally fell right on the door map and shriveled up and died. i still wont go near it

but anyway, i would never go near a scorpion either... they are kinda spider like... but good luck man, i wish i could help you, but i have no idea, and i doubt 99.9% off ns does either

it's really nice, it just chills wherever you put it, one time my brother let it loose in his room for the night, and in the morning it had made a huge ass web in the corner of his room. like charlottes web without the art work it was awesome. it bit me once but i still love it. its kinda like a part of the fam.

he's only moved his claw once since I got off work.. oh and I found out it was a girl... so yah ... I have another one but now I'm afraid he/she will get lonely.. they came from the same littler and they cant remove the poison glands its in the stinger.. and mind had the stinger removed.. only been stung twice... not bad though they aren't quite fully grown.
