A couple new pedes

[cjm1991]

So I got a shipment in today. The crazy thing about it, or I think its crazy, is that they were delayed 3 days because of Xmas madness. Its 25 degrees F here and they survived it, both the ones I bought and the freebie. So here they are.
Heres the freebie, a S. Alternans. Its from Florida I believe.

Subspinipes De Haani Thai Giant, I really like this one. Pretty docile actually.

Thanks for looking,

Congratulations! Beautiful animals! The resiliency of these animals never ceases to amaze me!

 

[Draiman]

Nice! The Thai Giant looks pretty robust. How long is it?

Cool, I guess alternans can come in diff colors, I'm not used to seeing one colored like that but have seen pics. You are stocking up. I only have two subspinipes, one is a Thai Giant too, don't see it much. When it comes out at night and I turn the light on, even a dim flashlight, it goes under.

Awesome additions!
I love the Subspinipes Subspinipes sp. Puerto Rico, for some reason I love the red contrasting the black body.
Could you get more pics of your subspinipes "Barbados"?

 

[Dillon]

I like the puerto rican subspinipes!

Thanks for sharing

 

[cjm1991]

Thanks for all the comments. The Thai Giant is about 7.5-8" and stocky. Ill get some more of the Puerto Rican pede and the barbados, I love the red and silver legs on the Puerto Rican though. The Alternans is pretty different, I only see the other form.

 

[cjm1991]

Heres another of the Barbados or Indonesian Black Tip, not to sure really. Its about 6" BL.

haven't seen Puerto Rican subspinipes on the market for a while, nice

I seem to remember the Scolopendra alternans of Puerto Rico were even more impressive then Haiti ones :? haven't you got one of those ?

No not at the moment, I may look into getting one though.

It looks just like the S.alternans coloration from Peurto Rico and Haiti, that would be pretty amazing if there was a supspinipes with the exact same coloration only from there.

And nissan480 - isn't that Freight Train?

 

[nissan480]

Yes,yes it is..lol,how do you know that?I cant remember the name of the gentleman I purchased him from...but is that how you know him?

He passed on a few months ago..He was my pride and joy pede.He was over 11 inche's,and is barried next to my Rottweiler.

I had horrible luck with my pede's last summer!but he was very,very old.

awww man, sorry to hear about your loss, but judging by his size and girth he had a pretty good life though :clap:

And no, I don't know anyone from Swift, I just remembered Freight Train because 1) it was a great specimen and 2) it was a unique name, just stuck in my mind

 

[nissan480]

awww man, sorry to hear about your loss, but judging by his size and girth he had a pretty good life though :clap:

Yes he did..and thanks for the kind words.

 

[cjm1991]

Wow, thats a beautiful pede nissan. I have seen it before and was in awe all the same. Sorry he passed away. I can only hope mine gets nearly that size.

 

[Comatose]

Awesome additions man...love that indo black tip.
