S dehaani color morphs?

[boxofspiders]

I have a young s dehanni “Thai black flame leg”, which I one day hope to breed in captivity. However, since I can’t find any more for sale at the moment, I was wondering if different dehaani color varieties can be interbred. Is it possible? If so is it frowned upon? Any answers are appreciated thanks!

Doesn’t sound like a good idea, but that’s a very cool centipede. See what the experts say I don’t keep any of these yet. If it occurs in nature doesn’t make hybrids a good plan. Male could get munched again.. I don’t know ..
stuff could go wrong.

Its never a good idea to mix color forms, especially since the distribution of S. dehaani is so huge it spans multible countries seperated by the ocean.

better treat each distinct colourform as its own, yet to be formaly described species.

most S. dehaani are exports from Vietnam while the black form you have hails from Thailand as far as i know.
