    Discussion on centipede substrate depth

    My Dehanni (adult) and subspinipes (12cm) both have complex tunnel systems, A.multicostis (adult) is always under his cork but there are 2 holes on the surface, S.hardwickei never burrows (5cm) Is it possible that on these hard surfaces in the wild, they physically can't burrow? and we're...

    Bumblebee millipedes cleaning

    I got 4 about 8 months ago, I wasn't sure if it was a problem or not so I scraped it out about 2 months after I got them, but I haven't since, they've had babies now (seems like hundreds!) so I'm not sure how much of a difference it makes. They've always had oak leaves, cork bark and fresh...

    My beloved centipede has passed away

    I'd say it was placid/scared maybe? from the start, every time I tried to hand feed it'd curl up, the same when I'd put my fingers in and I'd leave them still for about 10 minutes a time, when I'd stroke it the back end would raise at first then go down, but always going up when I went near...

    My beloved centipede has passed away

    It's so sad to be seeing this my little guy went last week. It was because of your posts and videos that I started to socialise him, I never got the chance to go as far as you did but it was enough to change my view forever so thank you
