About this Fella

Olive Keeled Flat Rock Scorpion for sale from Big Z's (Hadogenes paucidens). Spice-rated keeper notes, care guidance, and live-arrival packing where eligible.

Pancake-flat, crack-dwelling, and may outlive your other pets

Hadogenes scorpions are built like nothing else: squashed paper-flat, with a comically long, thin tail they barely bother to use, so they can vanish edgewise into a seam in a rock face. The Olive Keeled is the olive-toned, keeled-tail member of the club, and in captivity it does exactly what it does in the wild: wedge into a crevice and stay put.

Two things make Hadogenes legendary: ridiculously reduced venom (one of the mildest stings of any scorpion kept) and absurd longevity: decades are on the table with good care. It wants stacked flat slabs to live between, not deep substrate, and it grows slowly. Low drama, long haul, and totally unlike anything else on the shelf.

The numbers live in the care guide. Enclosure size, temps, humidity, feeding schedule, premolt signs, handling boundaries: it's all in the care guide for this exact fella. Start with the full Advanced guide, or click for the quick Open the Simple version →
