Lol! I always tell my husband it could be much worse - I could be one of "those" women who like shoes! I have friends that have more shoes than I have millipedes. Well, species, anyway! Then he opens my shoe closet...Those legs are bonkers. Whatever you all have is contagious

Another surface molt. That's pretty normal for this species. This one is as big around as my pinky and 6-7” long. They were about 3/4” long when I got them nearly 3 years ago

These guys are really getting big. They are close to being full grown. I have 3 and I think they are all female. This was 10 minuets after I gave them cucumber slices poor things must be starved.

Wow, they must've been hungry- They absolutely ripped through that cucumber! >w>These guys are really getting big. They are close to being full grown. I have 3 and I think they are all female. This was 10 minuets after I gave them cucumber slices poor things must be starved.
How big are they now?

Doh! I should have measured. I baked some new substrate for them last night so I will measure when I "pot them up" this evening.

@kjgalaxy how are your T. aoutii doing? I thought all 3 of mine were female, but I fed them last night and discovered them mating. They were hooked up, so I am sure I have a pair. I am so excited! I know you thought you had a pair, so maybe yours will be mating soon, too. I didn't expect them to be mature for another year.

I'm walking on air! I thought they wouldn't be mature for another year or two. Happy dance!!
Hi, sorry to jump in here but I'm new and trying to get more info on T. aoutii. Struggling to find info like; how long do they take to become adult? How long do they live overall (assuming good husbandry)? And are the males usually larger than the females?
I don't know if anyone here can help with those questions? I have one male one female, but while she has more segments than him (72 vs 69, not including cranial and anal segments) he is substantially heavier.
He's also a total sex pest but so far I haven't seen her be at all interested in his advances!
Any information welcome, TIA
