Unfortunately my AGB Millipede has passed away this week. I may not post much but I've read a lot, so I just wanted to say thanks to everyone here who helped me learn about inverts and how to be a good keeper, as this was the first one I've had.
She was already huge when I first got her many years ago, and never molted, so I am fairly confident she just died of old age, as there were no signs of disease or anything similar. Just kind of slowed down and stopped over a few weeks time.
But even though I am very sad, I can take my experience and what I have learned and hopefully apply it to some new invert friends in the future. I know the AGB isn't really available in the trade any more, but I was thinking having a few smaller ones together, instead of just one, could be a lot of fun
So again, "thank you!!", especially to Millipeter and E&A who answered my quesions and worries when I was new to everything. :clap:
In parting, here is the last video I took of her a while back:
