Welcome, i need a fast answear, how centipedes look like when they`re old and will die soon? :confused: How they die? :confused:

I`ve got coupe of Alieps grandidieri, male died some time ago, durind moult, his head changed color in dark-yellow green, few days later his head was dead (body lives another few days), now this same is happening with female:wall:
I`m scarred, she`s probably pregnant...

Cheers. Greg

Wait, am I to understand centipede's body's live beyond their "head's death"?

Sorry to go off topic, I'll do the research but wow!

Yes, body was alive while head starts to sthink... Centi was moving, walking, but it wasn`t co-ordinate, head was dragging..
