So my Vietnamese centipede I’ve had about a year now, and he hasn’t molted since I got him. He has grown SIGNIFICANTLY and he usually ate a Madagascar hissing cockroach once every week or two. This past month I haven’t been able to get him to eat, he will attack the roach but not kill or eat it and he hides from it which isn’t normal I would say. He hasn’t buried at all in weeks unless I spray him or put a roach in there. His sides look discolored and almost white around his legs but I still don’t see any exoskeleton coming off of him. He has a humid tank and it’s plenty warm 70-75 degrees. Any ideas if he’s molting or what’s going on with him??

Yeah I haven’t fed him in two weeks now and the last two feedings he refused so it’s nearly a month now no food
Yeah I haven’t had one not sure how long til it molts or if it’s just not hungry. Pet shop doesn’t carry them. House pedes are too small I don’t like the look of them like giant ones.
