Close call, just very nearly dumped this little one out because I thought she was dead!
Liocheles australasiae/pygmy wood scorpion. Known for playing dead but I've never seen it, til tonight. I even picked her up and she didn't budge.

Meet Bettuce, the tiny animal that started our love of keeping Inverts.

A Spiny Flower Mantis from Unseen Universe and she was an absolute joy to raise.

Did you know?
The Distinguished jumping spider (Attulus distinguendus) is one of our most threatened species - it can only be found on two sites in the UK!
Unfortunately, one of those sites is Swanscombe Marshes, and a new theme park development could destroy the site and its precious wildlife.

Just took me well over an hour to feed everything,
18 mantis,
10 scorpions (when did that happen 😂),
Beatles,
1 jumping spider,
1 vinegaroon,
1 tailess whip that I never see til I check it's not dead,
5 millipede tanks,
Ghost and Emerald cockroaches,
and a Pacman frog 🐸
Then all the live food needed feeding and spraying.

How breeders do it I have no idea!
