hey there
Have you tried feeding store bought crickets or roaches?

I feed my scorpions crickets I catch outside my house, but the main concern with doing this is
that the bugs can have parasites, pesticides and other harmful things in/on them.
So it is at your own risk if you decide to catch wild insects for your scorpion to eat.

However, I have been feeding my scorpions on wild caught crickets for over 3 months and so far they are doing fine.

its ok to feed a scorpion wild crickets and grasshoppers if you dont have crickets from the store... if you get a chance to go to petsmart, get a box of big crickets and they’ll last a while. but if u cant get to a store for crickets, its ok to get a wild bug but its better to not make it an every day thing. its safer for your scorpion.
