Alternatives to oak?

[Highlander]

I was just wondering, is there any other kind of leaves that millipedes like to eat? Maybe mullberry?

i think they are quite fond of beech
mine just get oak

 

[8 leg wonder]

mine love to nibble on rotten maple

 

[Scolopendra]

how necessary are leaves in the first place?

 

[thedreadedone]

some species will only eat dead leaves and rotting wood

Most hardwood leaves should be acceptable. It's best, though, if they've been dead and decaying awhile. Composted leaves are great.
