Just making this thread to make sure I got the basics down and to get input from more experienced keepers.
So basically from what I have read you can keep scolopendra heros/polymorphia in a large/XXL critter keeper with three inch deep bedding consisting of peat moss/cocnut choir, or damp sand mixture and a small water dish and decorations.
As for diet they seem to be omnivorous scavangers with a preference living prey. What I don't know is their feeding schedule, how much a week or day do they need?
As for additional details, I have a choice between the type you see in the pic and the "cherry head variety" all black with a redhead. Local is near Prescott AZ with elevation of 5500 to 6000 feet above sea level.
Looking forward to hearing your feedback.
