I pulled a piece of cucumber out of my millipede enclosure only to find a bunch of tiny baby pedes underneath. I'm now the father of several (unknown how many) baby milli's. I'm assuming they are the big black Africans, although I'm not certain. I'll post a picture if anyone is interested.

Sorry it took me so long. They are currently under 1/4". I wish I could take credit for this, but they did it pretty much in spite of anything I've done. Sometimes I guess you just get lucky.

I'm not sure of the species names. The babies should be the giant black africans. The large one in the picture is a different species. I have 3 different species in the same enclosure and the only pair I have are the giant black africans. So, unless there was a cross breeding, I'm assuming that is what they are. I haven't a clue as to how many. They are so small, I'm afraid to dig around to find out.
