| Nice! Are they always that visible and active or do they stay hidden in the substrate a lot?
What do you feed them? | |

| Dude, awesome! I'm not a fan of centipedes (those buggers creep me out) but I love the milipedes. You raised them since they were an inch long? Nice!  | |

What do you feed them? they are pretty active until they get ready to molt, then they can stay burried for weeks. i feed them carrots and dark greens like kale, turnip greens and collard greens and the occasional fruit like an apple slice. | |

| I acquired these guys in November 2009 at 1 inch in size. In late November/early December of 2011 I witnessed the mating of 2 of them. I do have a confirmed pair and now all I can do is wait and hope I get babies. You all can be sure that I will have some for sale as soon as they are 1 inch or bigger but I do not know how long it will take from mating until they are that size. | |

| I lost one of my millipedes a few weeks ago. I am sure it was one of my females as I've seen mating in the remaining two. I'm not certain what killed the millipede but I think it was bad husbandry issues that have been resolved. | |

| Shame to hear you lost one of these giants that you raised for years and the female aswell, that's real unfortunate. | |
