About this Fella

Pakistan Red Scorpion for sale from Big Z's (Hottentotta flavidulus). Spice-rated keeper notes, care guidance, and live-arrival packing where eligible.

Small frame, big color, big personality

The Pakistan Red Scorpion, Hottentotta flavidulus, is a compact buthid with rich red-orange coloring and an outsized attitude packed into a 2-to-2.5-inch body. It hails from the arid country of Pakistan, Iran, and neighbors, and it makes up in defensiveness and speed what it lacks in size.

It is a true buthid (fast, defensive, and medically significant), so it is an experienced-keeper, hands-off animal: long forceps and a catch cup for any maintenance, never fingers. For the right keeper it is a vibrant, rewarding little desert dynamo. Big Z only ships advanced buthids to keepers with a confirmed enclosure plan, and is on the dot for these orders; reach out anytime and we will walk through it together.

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 →
