You could try making friends with someone along the border in NY and asking if they mind having pedes shipped to them, that way you can go pick them up.

Centipedes or millipedes? Centipedes are readily available from a number of sources...in Ontario, you could try Port Credit Pets. If you are willing to have them shipped, you can try Avery Exotics in BC, or Mack Pahl (Abraxiscomplex) here in Alberta.

If you are looking for millipedes, they are illegal to import or possess in Canada.

haha yea i know millipedes are illegal but i don't really care! quite honestly i find it stupid. either way thanks a bunch! yea port credit pets is like a 30 minute drive from me.

Do you or any one else know what a good beginner species is for centipedes? i've had my share of experience with tarantulas like pokies and h macs so a little aggression and potent venom doesn't scare me. however i think i'd be looking for something on the larger side first. i've seen some centipedes with blue legs what are those called?

Thanks in advance :D

You can try Reptile Amazone in Montreal. They regularly have WC specimens. I believe they might be closed on Sundays, but call ahead of time to find out what they have in stock.

It is silly, but getting caught could cost you your entire collection, and possibly your home.

Not sure it matters all that much..they are all fairly similar in ease of care, all fast and aggressive, and all bitey...lol.
