Theres no need for you to comment if you're just being negative. Didn't you mum ever teach you: If you dont have anything nice to say, dont say anything at all.

right.....to set things straight.
They were on a top shelf, in a viv.in a locked room.

Now I am only surmising here but at various stages I have seen my other inverts very easily slide open the vivs. They, have all got locks on....
As the scorpians can't get up to the sliding glass as the the vivs are similar to exos and have a glass panel along the base I didnt put a lock on....ok...my bad...........however it would appear that between them they knocked over a decorative piece of cork bark, I think they burrowed underneath which shifted it.... which has then allowed them to reach the sliding part of the viv.....are we clear so far......they then must have opened the viv, if only very slightly and made good there escape...............(sounds like one of my police reports)

Hysteria, I am gutted they escaped but it was definately not through poor husbandry but trying to give them stuff in the viv to make it interesting.
Everysingle other viv in the room has a lock on, quite literally that was the only one that didn't. No I wont make that mistake again but it wasnt as if it wasn't considered it was decided by me it wasnt needed. Obviously it was and now I am paying the price......not you. me.
Stuff happens, you really don't need to get on your high horse and be quite so condescending. I am not a child so give over.......



Right Deep breath......airing cupboard, that has been checked and no sign......just going to kep going with the uv and see if he turns up.


thanks to all those who have pm'd me seeing as as usualon rfuk at the minute, someone started getting all high and mighty on the thread which made others feel that they didn't want to contribute. At this conjuncture I will get the mods to close it down as i really cant be arsed any more.....


Ash Mash I will let you know if he turns up as you have been so concerned.Thankyou
