A nice pic of my S. Polymortha “aqua blue”s recent feed.

Where'd you get this one? I had the chance to get some S. dehaani "Orange Legs" a while ago, but I passed on it. Been kicking myself ever since....

I bought it from backwater reptiles as a subspinipes, but now i'm fairly certain it is a dehaani because there are no spines on the underside of the terminal legs. I could be mistaken though...

Nice. And you're correct, it is an S. dehaani. S. dehaani used to be a subspecies of S. subspinipes, hence why they're mislabeled all the time. Real S. subspinipes are pretty rare in the hobby, and they're a bit more expensive too....

Saw this S. sp. “White Legs” at the NARBC Tinley Park Expo of Fall 2018. It was longer than my forearm. Easily the largest pede I’ve ever seen in person....

The last photo I took of my Male S. galapagoensis before sending him off to breed. I miss him already....

7”-7.25” Male Scolopendra galapagoensis (Darwin’s Goliath Centipede):


I definitely got a nice haul in return for him though. In addition to an S. galapagoensis pling, an S. dehaani “Black Flame” pling, I also received this S. dehaani “Thai Yellow Legs” (maybe Thai Flame?), who is already becoming one of my favorites....

My Scolopendra heros var. castaneiceps enjoying and exploring outside of the hollow trunk hide I gave it!! A solid 6.5-7in!

If you follow me on Instagram, you’ve already seen these, but here’s some pics of my recently acquired Scolopendra sp. “White Legs”. I’ve been wanting this species for FIVE years now, and now that I’ve finally got one, the feeling is simply surreal....

Also, shout out to Joe Biden for the stimulus check that helped me pay for it,

S. heros castaneiceps attempting to mate with arizonensis. I'm pretty sure they can interbreed but can they mate in such a late season? I took this pic this morning.

Why are you trying to produce hybrids???

sorry about my attempt.... I promise they didn't mate and I'll never try that anymore
