Ok, so I'm considering getting my first centipede. In the past I've kept a lot of T's and scorpions, but I think I want to try out a pede. I'm thinking about getting either a Malaysian Cherry Leg, or a Mau Chai. Both are 1.5". Which one should I get? Maybe I'll get both, who knows.
Also, I was planing on using a large glass jar, like an applesauce jar to keep it in. I would put maybe 3 inches of moist peat/vermiculite, plus a small water dish and some sort of hide, like a piece of bark or the like. Poke some holes in the lid of the jar for ventilation, and I'd be set. Does this sound like a good enclosure? How long would it take for the centipede to out grow this enclosure?
Thanks for nay help.
