Geophilomorpha sp.

Found this early this morning, and I'm going to try my hand at raising it
Lots of soil if you ever want to see it put a piece of card around it and remove it occasionally,they eat small insect larvea so maybe some freshly moulted mealworms or just make sure it occasionally gets new soil
 
@The wolf Thanks for the advice! I had read on here that they might take fruit flies or springtails. Do you think there's any truth to that? I need more springtails as cleanup crews anyway, so I'd like to try using those
 
@PidderPeets I have absolutely no doubt that they would take these as I doubt they would be particularly fussy,I think it would be easier to feed them springtails as they are more subterranean but it is possible the pede might come up at night to feed,making fruitflys more viable
 
@The wolf Alright, so I'll try the springtails first, and if the pede doesn't eat them, I'll get fruit flies and try them. Thanks for your help!
