I've just started into pedes...
So i juz wanna ask what do i need to do :eek:
Bought a desertic sp...so how do i house him...do i need to keep it moist like the common ones ?
And wat do i feed it with ?
It about 3inches now.
Its currently burrowed under a lil rock i place for it in a temporarily small tub.

what kind is it? they will all need moisture. Like the S. heros castaniceps is called a giant desert centipede but you never find them away from water... well not far away . and they are almost always under rocks that have damp soil under them or on cracks in rocks close to a lake or other body of water.
