gestation is 18 months

only if they are urodacus. Will need pics to confirm species. If they are black rocks keeping them together will result in death, gravid females are not tollerant of any other scorpions presence

if they are black rocks (urodacus manicatus) you may get away keeping them like you are but your best off keeping them separatly in chinese containers. Good communal scorps which you can put in the 2ft are Liocheles sp, Lychas sp, Isometrus sp, Isometroides sp, pretty much any buthid actually and Cercophonius sp all do well kept together

sorry i didnt put pics up sooner

 

[Acrochordus]

That is a Rainforest Scorpion (Liochele waigiensis), Thanks Tim

ok thanks

doubt very much its waigiensis but yes its a liocheles species of some sort, in a 2ft you could keep 5-10 adults depending on the size of the species you have. Very easy to keep and breed. Like it a bit moist tho so dont let it dry out too much
