AGBs Eating Corn

[mickiem]

I was going to ask if anyone feeds corn to their millipedes but I learned in an instant. I cut some fresh, raw sweet corn from a cob and put it in with my AGBs. The adults devoured it. One female ate 6 kernels within 5 minutes. The babies aren't as interested. Here is mama with a 7 month baby. She was curled around a kernel and baby just tasted.

Here is the 7 month baby coiled and a 2 month baby below it. With corn kernels.

That's an easy source of food.

I just wasn't sure if they would like it. The young didn't eat with much gusto but all of my adults enjoyed. And I wasn't sure whether or not I should cook it. Mine eat carrots, potatoes and sweet potatoes better if they are cooked. Thanks, yes an easy food source.
