Steven posted a picture here about three years ago of a blue pede with red legs. It was amazing. I think there was still some question as to the species, but it was thought to come from Israel. It's a while back to remember.

I'd walk across the ocean to buy that animal.

I got two that are ( or have been ) pretty similar to those blue little guys :). They ended up getting much darker, unfortunatly, but they were quite something... Here's a pic of one of them :



In my case, unless i'm mistaking, they're Sc.cingulata from Israel. What's yours, Steven?

Hey Phil, yep you're right,
the blue one on my picture is a youngster of
Scolopendra cingulata 'var. obscuripes' from Israel,

their heads turn black and the body looses it flashy blue and becomes silvergrey/blueish when they grow up, legs stay blueish or turn out yellow/orange.
