My New Pet....

I went to KL again. And I brought home a new pet... Guess what? It ain't a dog, kitten, bird, fish or rodent...

An ARACHNID..... A scorpion....

I've been thinking of buying a tarantula for years now. But tarantulas are way more expensive and I'm a noob bug owner. So I opted for a scorpion instead because it's not very expensive and it's more hardy. And tarantulas can run faster than scorpions so who knows what happens if it escapes...

It is at least 4.5 inches long and it doesn't eat very often. One cricket will be good for 4-5 days. To save money I'll have to go out and catch bigs, lizards or frogs instead of buying crickets.

To arachnaphobic people(people who are scared of scorpions and spiders), It is possible to put the scorpion onto my hand if it is in the mood. If it's bo mood, it'll curl up it's tail and stinger and spread it's claws.
