i collected a few centruroides vittatus while in texas for arachnocon, and one of them was a gravid female. a month later, today, i find her with about 20ish babies. unfortunately she was eating one of them..and i was told on another forum that the scorplings appear to be underdeveloped...stuck in a birth membrane. :sobstory: once she has eaten the rest of them, i'll be pairing her with a male and get back to the waiting game anyway...here are some pictures.
its easier to deal with than you think they should've been born a "molt" ahead of how they were..basically out of this birth membrane. after being popped out of mom, they climb onto her back and i think they are eat the membrane (not sure) i think it contains some things that will help the scorplings get established. after another molt, they disperse from her back to get out on their own.
first i would catch mom to get her out of the way..then you just have to get each little scorp. they can't climb the plastic, so its nowhere near as tough as dealing with spiders. (especially when some species of tarantula lay over 1000 eggs :eek1: )
anyway...here are some pictures.
