millipede molting trouble? help?

Hi, just a quick little question.
Got this cute guy a while ago and he has a few segments that almost look like they got stuck during molting i think? (see pic) i’m not super knowledgeable on the subject as i’m new to keeping juveniles :’) is this anything i should worry about? should i do anything to help the guy? thanks. ^^

There's nothing to do really. I am assuming he is acting just fine as that looks like a very minor issue. Millipedes can get abnormalities when they moult. The good news is that unless it is a gross problem further moults usually see the damage repaired.

he's acting fine and all, i assumed it was fine and just a little abnormality from last moult but wanted to check as ive seen the way isopods moult and a similar looking thing can lead to them suffocating thank you so much!

I don't see much damage in the photo, I've seen them get through much, much worse. Is that an Australian species on a baby hand?

Yeah, he seems to be doing well, just thought it was worth asking about as I just got him. I think he’s an Australocricus Sennae? (To my knowledge they can get to 15-20cm fully grown, the biggest ones in Aus) and that’s just my own small hand, haha.
