How do you know if your scorpion is a male or female?

You can determine the sex of a scorpion by examining its pedipalps and the shape of its abdomen. Males typically have larger, more robust pedipalps, resembling pincers, while females have smaller, more slender ones. Additionally, males often have a narrower, elongated tail (or metasoma) compared to females, which have a broader and more rounded abdomen for carrying and giving birth to young.
