Ethmostigmus trigonopodus not eating,help!

[LeFanDesBugs]

No that's me,my english is bad...but at fourteen I couldn't do better xD
Are there any systematical threads on the forum about centipede molts?Because the two trigonopodus are not getting out these days,so they are possibly about to molt?One blocked off its entrance and went under his bark..we will see!
Bye

There were older threads on here with pics describing the premolt process, but unfortunately the pics are no longer accessible, probably because they took them off the image hosting site for one reason or another. Although, by the sounds of it, a reclusive pede with significantly less activity sounds like it's prepping to premolt for sure.

Ok.The pede didn't go out for three days now,not enough to say anything..but I hope,and in the luckiest case,that (she,if that's true)is preparing to lay eggs..
It is quite plumper than the other and a little bigger..don't know!
It looked a little darker I think,when I put it in its new enclosure.But I didn't see it in direct light.So I don't know.I'll get a Alipes grandidieri from Bugzuk.com soon too!Pretty agressive pede,it charmed me!But a little disappointed they have no longer some multicostis...There are some on the forum for sale,but too expensive compared to their prices.
Do you know if there are some Scolopendra gracillima or Hemiscolopendra sp for sale in the hobby?

Well, the same site you mention also seems to have them occasionally available. Of course, non right now. Unfortunately, being in the States, I get screwed out of a lot of the best stuff lol. Can't even own phasmids that aren't native to this country.

I'm sorry for you
You have good species in North America: S.heros are really beautiful (particulary castaneiceps)

Hey-little update..
I saw the second pede,and it looks SO plump compared to the first (on the pics)
So I hope it is gravid,it's surely a female so I wait..
Pics coming soon,the cingulata is about to molt I think,it built a little cavity under the substrate,near the glass of the container so I can see it..I put a sheet of paper to make the room of the pede darker!
