    videos: gigeanta robusta/viridicoris eating mice

    When you're feeding things to a predator for pleasure, it's at least getting fed. There's a big difference between that and just seeing one animal kill another.

    Roach Racing

    Roaches might be able to crawl over that, though. I think that the plastic tubing is the best idea.

    videos: gigeanta robusta/viridicoris eating mice

    No, crickets feel pain. And a lot of times things won't take dead food, and you're lucky to have a snake/lizard/frog that eats pre-killed.

    I really want a pacman frog!

    Pacman frogs will eat anything they can get their mouths on (even other Pacman frogs bigger than they are). Pacman frogs will even choke to death trying to swallow things bigger than they are. Be prepared to feed a giant mouth with legs.

    videos: gigeanta robusta/viridicoris eating mice

    People feed these to snakes, lizards, and frogs. These were bred for food. It is no more cruel than feeding a cricket to a lizard. And it is good to feed things a variety. Mice would have different nutrients than insects. And centipedes will eat them in the wild, so it's not like they're...

    Roach Racing

    Roaches are a lot faster than hermit crabs. It wouldn't be very exciting, because they would all just scatter really fast and you wouldn't really know exactly which one got out first.

    African cave spider=tailless whip scorpion??

    Yeah, I've looked around to see if they were for sale. Are they really rare in the pet trade?

    Moving a pede help

    If the centipede is burrowed in the substrate, and you know exactly which part of the substrate it's in, you can just scoop up the general area that the 'pede is in. I don't know how well that would work with a large centipede, though.

    African cave spider=tailless whip scorpion??

    I saw pictures of both the African cave spider and the tailless whip scorpion (at least, that's what I think it was), and they looked like the same thing. Are they? And if so, is it a spider or a scorpion?

    ANY Alaskan shows?

    Alaska has a small population (around 600,000 for the whole state), but I was wondering if anyone knows of ANY shows that are up here?

    Roach molting problems

    Can't you just mist the cage with a squirt bottle? Another way to keep humidity up is to put a heater in a dish of water, so the water will evaporate and raise humidity. You can also place a towel over half of the lid, if you're using a screen lid.

    Roach Racing

    Yeah, it might be exciting for kids to see roaches scatter, but it won't last long. But if they come and place bets (my schools always had little tickets that you could gamble with, then exchange them for prizes), then I think it would be exciting for a longer period of time.

    I finished my website

    It's a nice looking site. Did you design it yourself? And do you have any pictures of your 'pedes on it? I couldn't find any. It would be really neat to see some of them! :D

    Scolopendra polymorpha

    About how long does the tiger centipede get? And how's the best way to care for them? What's the minimum enclosure space, humidity, lighting, and temperature?

    Greetings to all...........

    Centipedes don't sting. They don't have stingers. They have modified claws with venom glands.

    Use Care Changing The Water Bowl

    It says that because of the centipede's long fangs it is about 10 times more deadly than a scorpion. I don't think fangs ever play a role in the amount of venom pumped into something. And from what I know, they don't inject venom with their fangs... They use modified claws that have venom glands.
