howdy folks!
i just started my 2nd batch of pf jars, and i also just got a new pet, an emperor scorpion i have named alf. i was wondering if, when the caes are ready for birthing, it would be safe to put a cake in alfs terrarium as kinda like a decoration and then pick and eat the shrooms when they are ready. oh and heres a pic of alf, this is what he looks like under blacklight:
peace

Thats a fucking cool pet. Like fee said though, more than likly there will be contam issues.

I think it's a sweet idea. Let the cake fruit drop the cake in the terrarium, snap a few shots than post the pics. I'm excited to see this.

Let me get this straight... you're gonna stick your hand in the teranium of a scorpion with the intent to steal his mushrooms and you wanna know if its safe...

I'd put the cake in a soda bottle terrarium, like cut a 2 liter's bottom off, and put perlite in it or something, then put the cake on the perlite on top of a CD or some shit then the top of the bottle over the bottom and put the whole bottle in with Alf. That way it can fruit with less contam risk and without forcing Alf to have to survive high humidity. Scorpions don't like high humidity I don't think.

I use to work at PetCo a while back and we kept the humidity pretty high in the scorpions cage, and misted them pretty heavily every day.
Thats a African one right? If so Im pretty sure it likes humidity unlike our desert friends.
Im not 100% sure but thats my thoughts.

If I didn't know for sure, I wouldn't risk my scorpions life. No point in killing something to garnish an aquarium.

Scorpions need a sterile environment too. If a cake contams... you could lose more than shrooms. Alf could be cancelled and moved into syndication.
