hello, arachnopeons! it's locke.
i've kept tarantulas as many as 30 specieses for about past 3 years.
and these days i'm interested in centipedes.
actually last year i kept a vietnamese giant centipede(Scolopendra subspinipes) and has two haitians now.
i think a centipede is more attractive to me than a tarantula. (it's only my opinion.)
you know that i'm not good at centipedes.
these days i'm very curious about pedes. the reason i've joined this site is for finding good informations for my pedes. i think there are many good pede-keepers here.
i have few questions for this time. please read and answer my questions if you want.
first of all, my two haitian centipedes are very friendly to each other. one is 9 and the other is 9.5cm yet.
i heard some words about characteristics. one species is possible for keeping with a same(species) centipede in a cage together and the other species is not.
give me a chance to explain my question.
if i have 2 different specieses which are not aggressive to same species and i keep 2 different centipedes into one cage together.. will they recognize each other as a food and hunt fataly for dinner? or as male adult lions... will they fight and try to get each other out of its territory? or finally will they would also be kind to each other? even if not a same size or gender or anything else...
second, i heard the strength of their poisons. well.. i have no experience of keeping such pedes like gigantea or galapagoensis. but somebody told me their poison is terribly stronger than any giant centipedes such as my haitians.
i know most giant centipedes have poison which is more strong than or equal to any ornamental tarantulas.
let me know about these questions please.. i don't want a simple guess which anybody knows.
thanks for reading.. and i'm ready to listen to your right answers!
see ya! -locke
ps: i will introduce myself to all of you this time a little.
