[Kangakid]

Hey People
i am 15 and am wanting to get 1 or more scorpions as pets but i dont know what to start with i have done some research around and have seen that the Flat Rock Scorpion And Emperor Scorpion are good for beginers but i was wondering what any of you had to say about this i am not afraid to be stung as long as it isnt deadly toxic if it is just like a bee sting i dont care please help
i live in south australia if any one could also point out a good place to go to get scorpions and all related accessories

Those scorps cannot be kept in Australia, they are exotics. You are limited to Australian species, doesn't really matter which species you keep first, but they do hide most of the time, rare to see them.

Good info here http://www.thedailylink.com/thespiralburrow/ email the guy, he's in SA, will be able to help you and direct you to people that might be breeding some.

Dont lick them.

Yes unfortunately you can't have Emperor Scorpions, they are great 'pets', nice and big and very easy to keep and breed.
