Hello,
I'm a researcher working on arthropod evolutionary developmental biology, and I'm interested in developing Oxidus gracilis as a research model organism. I had a few questions I was hoping people could help me with
Does anyone have advice on where to get some? I'm currently in MA USA, I'm guessing it's too cold for them here.
Do the females lay embryos in large clutches, or single embryos? Are they buried in the substrate?
How long do embryos take to hatch?
About how big are the embryos?
How long do adults live? One year, or multi year?
Do you use the millipede care guide in the sticky on this forum, or do you modify that in some ways?
Thanks so much for any advice!
