Anyone Know Where I Can Buy Some Scolopendra subspinipes mutilans?

i ordered 5 from someone but they forgot to remove the listing as they were already sold. so now with my search of over a year for these guys (not an intense dedicated search of course), and much disappointment from this recent news after being so excited waiting for them, i now need your help. i can't seem to find any. i'd like a good sized community of 3 to 5 individuals, mixed genders (if all or some are unsexed that's fine too) i just don't want all males or all females.

I saw a bunch at a herp show this past weekend, but unfortunately I can't remember the vendor's name. Sorry.

tarantulaspiders.com just told me they have some. i've never ordered from them before. any testimonials?

them being in florida makes the shipping and handling much higher then from ken the bug guys (i'm in nevada) so this is even more of a investment.
both have pretty much the same price, but ken's didn't list size.
ken no longer has mutilans at this time, hence why i posted this.

sorry about that. i bought them from Ken. i was only able to get 4. ken said that the 5th one was in bad shape, so he couldn't sell it. they were two medium and two small juveniles.

ha ha ha, so you got his last batch?! ha ha, yeah he was too busy to edit his site, so i ordered 5 and found out today when he got to his orders that they were already sold. well knowing who took 'em makes it feel better. take good care of 'em. i'm waiting for his next batch. i want at least 3-5.

know of any good care sheets and info on them? i've got the basics, but more info is always appreciated.

nothing specific, just keep them like your general pede. altho, if you're going to keep a group then make sure they all get enough food. it'll be another year before i can sex them and breed them.

how do you know when a pede is mature enough for breeding? and i'll google centipede sexing when i come to that bridge. never had a 'pede. only tarantulas, scorpions, and snakes. (also various insects)

when the centipede is about 75% of its adult size, then i think that it's breedable. altho, someone else said that they've seen pedes that matured at a smaller size than that.
