Long have I heard of a giant tiger centipede of Malaysia but no pics had ever surfaced on any search engine or forum. It was but a simple enigma, likely not to even be real. Now in months past picture on Facebook had surfaced of this "tiger" from Malaysia. But little attention did I pay to it. Now a fellow hobbyist brought it to my attention that he had one of these and a few more Malaysian pedes, so of course, I bought them. Now what I got in this order blew my mind. It was a S. subspinipes Unlike any I had ever seen, a true Jewel. Here is the footage...

Awesome vids. Roughly how many sessions of socialising does it take to turn your pedes into such sweethearts?

I tried it with my rubripes, but it just dropped the cricket it was eating and slowly went underground.

I made a few vids for you, just haven't went through and found the best one to post yet. A few sessions is all it takes honestly, I go over it in the vids. Give me a day or two to post it.
