I caught a 4” narceus americanus and I’m pretty sure it’s female because I don’t see the distinct longer band, and at it’s size I’m pretty sure it’s done growing. Is there a chance that she’s fertile? I’ve had her for quite some time and haven’t seen any eggs or babies. I did catch her while she had finished molting(evident bc of the shed exoskeleton) so I’m assuming that she needs to be mated again?

I don't believe they can store sperm through a molt, so yes, it would need to be mated again. Breeding loan for millipedes...

Thanks,
