I do too, but I've been getting such mixed results. You and a few others say female, a couple other people are saying male. I was sure it was female until I compared it to the "Sexing for Dummies" thread and it looks like it's almost in between. I don't know what to think anymore.
Well you could always leave the lid on for a few days and see how the temperatures change. With that being said I'd be surprised if it'll get much hotter than it would overnight.
On top of all that: Buy a thermostat. If you're using a heat pad having a thermostat for it is a good idea. You can...
The Spidershoppe (UK) is listing them and claiming that they can get larger than S. gigantea:
"These are thought to be an giant Island species evolved on an island with no predators and grow massive. They are the biggest Centipedes we have ever seen, not even any of the Peruvian species like...
Thanks for the pointers. The lid is about as secure as I'm going to be able to get it. It's got plastic around the edges with a metal screen in the middle that's inaccessible to the centipede. The lid also locks down in four separate places. I made the mistake of measuring before tamping the...

Hey guys,
I'm new to AB but I've been an active invert keeper my entire life. I currently keep scorpions, true spiders, roaches, mantids, reptiles (I know they have spines, but they're in a similar category), and tarantulas. My main focus is on tarantulas but I'm always looking for something...
