Last weekend my son purchased his first Vietnamese centipede. It was quite lively and active, has eaten several deathshead roaches and has had plenty of darkness, hiding places, and ambient temperature between 75 and 78 degrees.
This morning it was partially curled up and very lethargic. Legs are moving only very slightly, the head is curling downwards and antenna are curled up in odd fashion.
Is this centipede dying? I am guessing it is dehydrated, based on his substrate. Will misting the centipede directly help? He's had a shallow water bowl and eaten a large cockroach every other day.
