I'm new to keeping this species, and it's my first millipede. I'm especially antsy due to the untimely death of my Ivory (I'm not sure what killed it, so I'm worrying about every little thing.)
I know there are posts discussing this, but it's a bit hard for me to digest everything at once and separate experiments from proven advice (things you can add as food and such), so I was wondering if anyone was willing to share their experience and what works for them! I'm wondering if I should buy substrate from bugsincyberspace or stick with the coconut fiber/leaves I'm using. I want to make sure he's getting the best nutrients- everything he needs, at least!
I'm also concerned about moisture levels. The enclosure I have has no holes (it's the plastic one from bugsincyberspace), for reference. I'm not sure how much i should spray, or how to make sure the substrate is damp all the way through.
