Moisture level for 2 inch S. heros plings?

[gabrielgartner]

I'm taking the centipede plunge finally. I've kept lots of other inverts but these are my first centipedes. I'm aware of the difficulty of raising plings and have done as much research as I can thus far but am looking for any further comments/suggestions. I'm getting a couple of S. heros plings and am wondering about moisture level for plings this small. I know adults need it drier than most, but I would assume the plings require a bit more moisture? Any advice on moisture or favorite substrates for S. heros plings would be much appreciated.

I had a centipede last year, and have 9ne now to. Use outdoor dirt, because this will have bugs for your centipede to eat. Take a plastic container and cut a big rectangular hole on the lid. Tape cheese cloth to the hole. Make sure the habitat has things to hide under. Use the dip in a rock as a water bowl. Make sure to spray the habitat daily with water.
