i have been thinking about getting a centipede for some time now and i was wondering what a good starter pede is? i would like a fairly easygoing pede thats easy to maintain. also i live in the u.k so i can only get some of the species.
Venom also varies by individual and geography. The S. mirabilis from Tanzania, "Neon Blue" has a very unimpressive bite (1/2hr of slight tingling) but many hobbyists have trouble keeping that species alive.ok i was thinking a Neon Blue Leg Centipede from: www.bugsdirectuk.com
that's a good point about venom.Venom also varies by individual and geography. The S. mirabilis from Tanzania, "Neon Blue" has a very unimpressive bite (1/2hr of slight tingling) but many hobbyists have trouble keeping that species alive.
Hi,ok i've narrowed my chocies down to: E. trigonopodus(but i can't find a site that sells), blue legged centipede or a chinese red headed centipede.
