Hi all! This is the first actual post I've made here so please be patient with me haha..

Recently I've been looking into getting a pair of Ivory millipedes. I've been doing research as needed and have some things I'll need to take care of them and all that.. Overall very excited for them!
I'm just curious if anyone here has had Ivories before? If yes, I'd be happy to hear some extra advice or tips :)
I've been watching videos from Aquarimax Pets on YouTube and he reallly has some good ones and goes in depth about how to care for a LOT of different types of inverts.

Hi, I’ve never kept them but they seem like a great species. I have N. americanus and O. ornatus. honestly keeping millipedes isn’t that hard, as long as you get them good substrate and a source of calcium (like a cuttlebone), and supplement them with fruits, vegetables, and protein every once in a while. for ivory millipedes specifically, I would recommend keeping them moist and giving them lots of rotting wood to chew on :)
