Video: Centipede goes up my sleeve!

[Staehilomyces]

Here's a (rather long) video of me setting up new enclosures for Azog and a juvenile green E. rubripes; fortunately, it was the latter that went up my sleeve. I probably spoke a little too much for some people's liking, however, for this kind of video, I believe it is necessary to speak more often than say, a feeding video.
Azog behaved very well; I think my struggles with it were predominantly due to poor technique (now I've just got to give Gothmog another go).
Anyway, enjoy the new vid!

Good job! I don't think you talk too much at all. I think you speak clearly and professionally. Very articulate. This is good to help others to understand how quickly a pede can decide to go in a different direction. Thanks for sharing!

More! More! My favorite video so far!

That first pede is awesome.

How close to bin did you get the label?

 

[mickiem]

Yes, your best! You are showing something very helpful in the rehousing but then you also show how to stay cool during a "situation".

Cool vid

That first pede is awesome.

How close to bin did you get the label?

A metre above it (I'm pretty uncoordinated :/)

Also, thanks to everyone who says this is my best video - I'm so glad to hear I'm improving. And don't worry, there's more to come.

Well done! Sleeving is my nightmare. I've had roaches and Scutigera go up my sleeves before; but both of those were less than 2cm and don't give venomous bites.

Thanks! To be honest, I'd rather it have been Azog. In spite of what I have said in previous threads, Azog does seem to be well socialised after all. Plus, it's large size means I would've been able to tell where it was at all times, unlike this small pede, which I could barely feel.

Really funny video too. I don't know how you avoided getting tagged by the smaller one though...

 

[Staehilomyces]

Glad you found it entertaining, and yes, I'm surprised (and relieved) that the little one didn't tag me. That being said, I'm glad it was just a juvenile.

It must be said, Azog is an amazing looking animal in great condition. Very well presented video. I've been thinking of doing some myself, but don't quite have the confidence in myself or my voice to be a "host", so you need a big thumbs up for that.

 

[Staehilomyces]

Thanks! Azog actually has a slight kite infestation; I got the mobile ones off its spiracles, but the immobile hypopus mites remain. Are they likely to cause any harm?

 

[Coolherper]

That's really impressive!

Thanks! Another one of my centipedes is calming down nicely, so you should expect another handling video soon!
